Concept Introduction:
Atomic number (Z):
Atomic number of an element is the number of protons found in the nucleus of every atom of that element.
(b)
Interpretation:
The atom has higher ionization energy has to be given.
The given diagram is,

Concept Introduction:
Ionization energy:
Ionization energy is defined as the energy required removing one mole of electron from one mole of isolated gaseous atom or ion.
Periodic trends:
Ionization energy of an element increases along the period and decreases down the group.
