1.	Answer question 2 plz
Answer» The element is LIKELY to be sillicon. There is a high jump in IP value from IP4 to IP5. This shows that after losing 4 electrons, the element attains noble gas configuration. Hence, as we require more energy to remove an electron from a stable element there is d increase in energy. The element now has 4 valence electrons which is same as that of Si.
