The ionization potential of N>O because

Option: 1

Ionization potential increases with decrease in size


Option: 2

N possess stable half filled p-orbital


Option: 3

The screening effect in N>O


Option: 4

O is more electropositive than N


Answers (1)

best_answer

As we learnt

 

Screening effect -

 

The actual charge experienced by the valence shell electron is called effective nuclear charge.

- wherein

The repulsive force experienced by valence shell electron from an inner shell electron is called a screening effect.

 

Due to 1s^22s^22p^3 electronic configuration, N has higher Ionisation potential than O.

Hence, the option number (2) is correct.
