READ THESE INSTRUCTIONS FIRST A The first ionisation energy of rubidium is higher than the first ionisation energy of calcium. Do not open this question booklet until you are told to do so. B The first ionisation energy increases from sodium to phosphorus as the number of protons increases but number of inner quantum shells remains the same. Write in soft pencil. The second ionisation energy of chromium is lower than the second ionisation Do not use staples, paper clips, highlighters, glue or correction fluid. enefgy of manganese as manganese has one more proton than chromium. Write your name, class and index number in the spaces provided on the Answer Sheet. D The semnd ionisation energy of any element is always higher than its first ionisation energy as more energy is required to remove an electron from an positive There are forty questions on this paper. Answer all questions. For each question there are four increasingly more species possible answers A, B, C and D. Choose the one you consider correct and record your choice in soft pencil on the separate A Answer Sheet. 3 The boiling points (b.p.) of ammonia, carbon dioxide and hydrogen chlor,de are given n below.
