Four successive members of first row transition elements are listed below with their atomic numbers. Which one of them is expected to have the highest third ionization enthalpy
View answer and explanation
Correct option: C
Manganese (Z = 25)
Option C is correct because Manganese (Z = 25) has an electronic configuration of 3d⁵4s², and removing the third electron requires removing an electron from the stable, half-filled 3d orbital, resulting in a significantly higher ionization enthalpy.
