Hot Sauce · Answer 1

I agree with the person above - C. the innermost shell is the energy level which requires the most energy to remove an electron, simply because it is so close to the core of the atom.

Kash Lamb · Answer 2

The answer is c because the inner shell electron is closer to the nucleus.
