10.Which row correctly states and explains the trend in the ionization energy from Li to Cs?
| |
Trend |
Because … |
| A |
increases |
valence electrons are further from the nucleus in Cs |
| B |
increases |
Cs has a greater nuclear charge |
| C |
decreases |
valence electrons are further from the nucleus in Cs |
| D |
decreases |
Cs has a greater nuclear charge |
