Answer:
The atomic radius and screening effect of the intervening electrons in silicon atom are higher in comparison to carbon. Thus, the force of attraction of nucleus for the valence electrons in silicon considerably decreases. As a result, there is phenomenal decrease in ionisation energy from carbon to silicon.
