The electronic configuration with the highest ionization enthalpy is:

A$$[Ne] 3s^2\, 3p^1$$
B$$[Ar]3d^{10}4s^2\, 4p^3$$
C$$[Ne]3s^2\,3p^3$$
Correct Answer
D$$[Ne]3s^2 \, 3p^2$$

Solution

The electronic configuration with the highest ionization enthalpy is $$\displaystyle [Ne]3s^2\,3p^3$$. On moving down the group, the ionization enthalpy decreases. In a period, on moving from left tor fight, the ionization enthalpy increases.
