Answer: The list of elements from highest to lowest Ionization Energy is Nitrogen > Phosphorus > Arsenic > Antimony > Bismuth.

Explanation:

The amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from an isolated gaseous atom or ion is called ionization energy.

Element with a half-filled orbital requires much more energy to remove an electron. This is because element with a half-filled electronic configuration is the most stable in nature.

More stable or tightly electrons are bound to the nucleus of an atom more will be its ionization energy. This also means that smaller is the atom higher will be its ionization energy.

When we move from top to bottom in a group the size of atom increases and the attraction between nucleus of atom and its valence electrons decreases. Hence, less will be the ionization energy.

Therefore, ionization energy decreases on moving down a group.

So, the given elements Phosphorus, Bismuth, Arsenic, Antimony, Nitrogen are all group 15 elements. Hence, decreasing order of their ionization energy is as follows.

Nitrogen > Phosphorus > Arsenic > Antimony > Bismuth

Thus, we can conclude that the list of elements from highest to lowest Ionization Energy is Nitrogen > Phosphorus > Arsenic > Antimony > Bismuth.

Answer:

<em>What quantity dictates the speed of a reaction?</em> The activation energy

Explanation:

According to the collision theory, when molecules collide, they must overcome an energy barrier for the reaction to take place. This energy, known as activation energy, is represented by the difference in energy between the initial state and the transition state. The higher the activation energy, the slower the reaction. That's why catalysts reduce the activation energy to accelerate the reaction.
