The first (ΔiH1) and second (ΔiH2) ionization enthalpies (in kJ mol-1) and the electron gain enthalpy (ΔegH) (in kJ mol-1) of the elements I, II, III, IV and V are given below

Element  - ΔiH1 - ΔiH2 - ΔegH

I  -   520 - 7300  –60

II -  419 - 3051 –48

III - 1681 - 3374 –328

IV - 1008 - 1846 –295

V - 2372  - 5251 +48

The most reactive metal and the least reactive non-metal of these are respectively

(a) I and V

(b) V and II

(c) II and V

(d) IV and V

Correct answer: (c) II and V

Explanation:

I represents Li, II represents K III represents Br, IV represents I, V represents He

So, amongst these, II represents most reactive metal and V represents least reactive non-metal.
