Ionisation energy is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from an isolated atom in the gaseous state.
Rb < Cs < Na < Li
OR
Group of A and C:
- A (atomic number n-2) is in Group 1 (alkali metals).
- C (atomic number n+1) is in Group 17 (halogens).
Highest Reductive Power:
- A (an alkali metal) has the highest reductive power.
Formula of the Compound:
- The formula of the compound formed between A (Group 1) and C (Group 17) will be AC, such as NaCl, LiCl, etc.
