Question

Give reason why Au and Ag have almost same ionization potential

Answer 1

$\huge \tt{Answer : }$

$<bullet><b> The ionisation potential of Au (79) and Ag (47) are almost same. Explain. Answer: Size of Au (79) and Ag (47) is same but not have same ionisation enthalpy becasue Zeff of Au is more due to poor screening effect of f-orbitals so ionisation enthalpy of Au (79) is more than Ag (47).$

Answer 2

Answer:

The difference of Au and Ag is Au means Gold and Ag means Silver and one more thing is Au valency is 3 and Ag valency is 4.

Have a nice day.
