How would you explain the fact that first ionisation enthalpy of sodium is lower than that of magnesium but its second ionisation enthalpy is higher than that of magnesium?

उत्तर
Electronic configuration of \[\ce{Na}\] is 1s22s22p63s1. After losing one electron from its outermost shell, sodium easily attains stable electronic configuration (1s22s22p6 ), while magnesium does not lose its electron easily due to presence of two electrons in s-orbital (1s22s22p63s2). Hence first ionisation energy of sodium is less than magnesium.
When one electron is removed from \[\ce{Na}\] and \[\ce{Mg}\], their configurations become ls22s22p6 and 1s22s22p63s1 respectively. Now it is easier to remove one electron from 3s of \[\ce{Mg+}\] than 2p6 of \[\ce{Na+}\]. Hence, second ionisation energy of \[\ce{Mg}\] is less than \[\ce{Na}\].

In the modern periodic table, elements are arranged in order of increasing atomic numbers which is related to the electronic configuration. Depending upon the type of orbitals receiving the last electron, the elements in the periodic table have been divided into four blocks, viz, s, p, d and f. The modern periodic table consists of 7 periods and 18 groups. Each period begins with the filling of a new energy shell. In accordance with the Arfbau principle, the seven periods have 2, 8, 8, 18, 18, 32 and 32 elements respectively. The seventh period is still incomplete. To avoid the periodic table being too long, the two series of f-block elements, called lanthanoids and actinoids are placed at the bottom of the main body of the periodic table.
