The first ionization energy for $$Be$$ is $$899 kJ/mol$$ while B has a first ionization energy of $$800 kJ/mol$$. This data does not fit the usual trend of ionization energies.
Select the BEST statement to justify the data.
  • The valence electrons in $$Be$$ are removed from a full $$2s$$ subshell with less shielding compared to a not full $$2p$$ subshell in $$B$$.
  • Be has valence electrons in the $$2s$$ subshell which is much closer to the nucleus and less difficult to remove than the $$2p$$ valence electrons in $$B$$.
