(B) Cl, F, S
(C) F, S, Cl
(D) 75%
(E) 100%
10. Statement I Statement II

11. Statement I Statement II
Oxygen has a smaller first ionization energy than fluorine. BECAUSE   Oxygen has a higher Zeff value than does fluorine.
12. Removing an electron from sodium is an _____ process and removing an electron from fluorine is an _____ process.
(A) Endothermic, exothermic
(B) Exothermic, endothermic
