| Assertion (A): | Generally, ionisation enthalpy increases from left to right in a period. |
| Reason (R): | When successive electrons are added to the orbitals in the same principal quantum level, the shielding effect of inner core of electrons does not increase very much to compensate for the increased attraction of the electron to the nucleus. |
| 1. | Both (A) and (R) are true and (R) is the correct explanation of (A). |
| 2. | Both (A) and (R) are true but (R) is not the correct explanation of (A). |
| 3. | (A) is true but (R) is false. |
| 4. | (A) is false but (R) is true. |
Column I lists the electronic configurations of certain elements, while Column II provides their electron gain enthalpy values. Match each electronic configuration with the appropriate electron gain enthalpy:
