How to Practise Ionization Enthalpy

Revise the periodic trend and its exceptions: nitrogen above oxygen, beryllium above boron and magnesium above aluminium, which come from stable electronic configurations. Practise arranging elements by first ionization enthalpy and comparing successive ionization enthalpies.

Then attempt the statement-based questions, which test the same exceptions.
