We can predict the order of the elements given above according from the highest to lowest first ionization energies by using the trends in a periodic table. For elements in a family, the ionization energy decreases as it goes down. Therefore, the correct order would be Be, Mg, Ca, Sr.

Answer:  Beryllium(Be) > Mg(Magnesium) > Ca(Calcium) > Sr(Strontium)

Explanation:   Ionization energy is defined as the energy which is used to remove an electron from the outermost shell of an element in the gaseous state.

Thus as we move down the group, we can observe that atomic mass is increasing as the number of shells are increasing, thus the outermost shell has less attraction towards the nucleus due to the shielding effect of the penultimate and anti penultimate shells.

Thus the order of the Ionization energy is found to be -

         Beryllium(Be) > Mg(Magnesium) > Ca(Calcium) > Sr(Strontium)

BabaBlast [244]

Hey there mate ;), Im Benjemin and lets solve your question.

★ (Alkanes) : forms single bonds between carbon atoms.

The first four elements are gases and others are liquid in state.

★(Alkenes) : forms double bonds between carbon atoms.

The first three alkenes are gases and rest are liquid.

★ (Alkynes) : forms triple bonds between carbon atoms.

First three are gases and the last one is liquid.

According to boiling point :

The larger structure of the hydrocarbons, the higher the boiling points they have.

In the 3 tables, we can see that the boiling point increases.
