The first ionisation enthalpies (in kJmol−1) of the second-period elements are Li 520, Be 899, B 801, C 1086, N 1402, O 1314, F 1681, Ne 2081. Select the correct statements.
AΔiH1(B)>ΔiH1(Be)
BΔiH1(Ne)−ΔiH1(Li)=1561
CΔiH1(F)/ΔiH1(Li) is greater than 3
DExactly two elements (B and O) have a lower value than the element just before them
Answer: B, C, D
Dips occur at B (801 < 899) and O (1314 < 1402), so the first is true. 2081 - 520 = 1561 (true). 1681/520 = 3.23 (true). B is lower than Be, so the last is false.
