Detailed Solution

 It is given that X, Y and Z have atomic numbers 19,37 and 55 respectively. It means they all belong to Group 1 i.e, Alkali metals.

We know that Ionization energy decreases as we move down the group.

Therefore, from the above observation we can say that  'Y ' would have an ionisation potential between those of X and Z.

Hence, option(b) is the answer.
