Group 16 Elements
Chapter Name : The P- Block Elements |
Sub Topic Code : 102_12_07_10_04 |
Topic Name : Group 16 Elements |
|
Sub Topic Name : Ionization Enthalpy |
|
Introduction
• Ionisation enthalpy decreases down the group. It is due to increase in size. • However, the elements of this group have lower ionisation enthalpy values compared to those of Group15 in the corresponding periods. • This is due to the fact that Group 15 elements have extra stable half-filled p orbitals electronic configurations.
Pre-Requisites:
Periodic table, elements, ionization enthalpy
Activity:
Eggs contain sulfur.
Real Life Question:
What elements are present in eggs?
