Assertion(A) Mn-atom loses nsn s electrons first during ionisation as compared to (n−1)d(n-1) d electrons.

Reason(R) The effective nuclear charge experienced by (n−1)d(n-1) d electrons is greater than that by nsn s electrons.
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
If both (A) and (R) are correct and (R) is the correct explanation of (A).
Option A is correct. Mn loses ns electrons before (n-1)d electrons because the effective nuclear charge experienced by (n-1)d electrons is greater than that by ns electrons, making it more difficult to remove them.
