Ionisation energy in the alkali metals group :

Aincreases from Li to Cs
Bdecreases from Li to Cs
Correct Answer
Cremains the same
Dfirst increases then decreases

Solution

IE decreases on moving down the group as the atomic radii increases and the outer electrons moves farther away from nucleus and the electron is not tightly bound to nucleus.
