    Amongst the elements with following electronic configurations, which one of them may have the highest ionization energy?

    A) \[Ne[3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{1}}]\]

    B) \[Ne[3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{3}}]\]

    C) \[Ne[3{{s}^{2}}3{{p}^{2}}]\]

    D) \[Ar[3{{d}^{10}}4{{s}^{2}}4{{p}^{3}}]\]  

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

    [b] and [d] have exactly half-filled 3p orbital, but is smaller in size than . Hence  has highest ionization enthalpy.
