Which element in the fourth period has the highest third ionization enthalpy?

Third ionization enthalpy peaks when removing an electron from a noble gas-like X²⁺ ion. Ca (after losing two electrons, becomes Ca²⁺ with 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p⁶) has the highest value.

Which of the following has the highest first ionization enthalpy among the third period elements?

First ionization enthalpy increases across a period. Among Na, Mg, Si, and Ar, Ar (group 18, period 3) has the highest value due to its stable noble gas configuration.

Which element in group 14 has the highest ionization enthalpy after losing three electrons?

Fourth ionization enthalpy is highest for C (removing an electron from C³⁺ with 1s²) due to its small size and stable configuration, compared to Si, Ge, or Sn.

Which pair of elements from the same group shows the smallest difference in first ionization enthalpy?

In group 13, Ga and In have a smaller ionization enthalpy difference due to d-block contraction effects, unlike B-Al, where the drop is larger due to a new shell.
