- What is ionization energy?
- General trend on the periodic table:
- What can ionization energy tell us about core and valence electrons?
- Why does phosphorus have a first ionization energy of 1060 kJ/mol and sulfur have a first ionization energy of 1005 kJ/mol?
- Which configuration would have the highest 1st ionization energy and which would have the lowest 2nd ionization energy?
- 1s22s22p6 – this would have the highest first ionization energy.
- 1s22s22p63s1
- 1s22s22p63s2 – this would have the lowest first ionization energy.
- Which in each set has the smallest 1st ionization energy?
- Ca, Sr, Ba
- N, O, F
- S2-, S, S2+
- To which family would the following element belong?
