(a) If we arrange the elements of the second period (Li-Ne) in order of increasing first ionization energy, where would hydrogen fit into this series? (b) If we now arrange the elements of the third period (Na-Ar) in order of increasing first ionization energy, where would lithium fit into this series? (c) Are these series consistent with the assignment of hydrogen as a nonmetal and lithium as a metal?
