Solution
The correct option is A more than The electronic configuration of Helium is -
K
2
and Hydrogen is -
K
1
Helium has higher nuclear charge and smaller atomic radius than hydrogen. Thus, the magnitude of the force acting on each electron of helium is more. So, a higher amount of energy is required to knock out its valence electron. Hence, the ionisation energy of helium is more than that of hydrogen.
