Arrange the following elements in order of decreasing first ionization energy: S, Ca, F, Rb, and Si. Rank from largest to smallest. To rank items as equivalent, overlap them.

The concentration of energy needed to withdraw an electron from an atom’s mole in the gas phase is known as the ionization energy of an atom. It is more accurately termed as the first ionization energy. The ionization energy upsurges from left to right through a period and from top to bottom in the groups.  

Of the given elements S, Ca, F, Rb, and Si, the S, and Si belong to the third period, and the atomic radius of S is less in comparison to Si, F belongs to the second period, Rb belongs to the fifth period, and Ca belongs to the fourth period. Thus, the decreasing order of first ionization energy, that is, from largest to smallest is F > S > S > Ca > Rb.
