Chapter 5, Problem 20KT
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The key term that corresponds to the definition “the amount of energy necessary to remove an electron from an atom” is to be stated.

Concept introduction:

Ionization energy is defined as the energy required to remove an electron from the atom leading to the formation of an ion. The electron is removed from the valence shell of the atom. The amount of energy required to ionize an atom is directly proportional to the electronegativity of the atom.

Students have asked these similar questions
Refer to the periodic table and state the highest energy sublevel in a silver atom.
Refer to Figure and explain why there are signifi cant decreases in ionization energy between some adjacent elements, such as argon and potassium. Why is the drop from argon to potassium much larger than the drop from zinc to gallium?
