Define ionization enthalpy
  • 1 answers

Amar Kumar 8 years, 2 months ago

Ionization energy (IE):It is  the amount of energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron, the valence electron, of an isolated gaseous atom to form a cation.

It is quantitatively expressed in symbols as X + energy → X+ + e

where X is any atom or molecule capable of being ionized, X+ is that atom or molecule with an electron removed, and e is the removed electron.

This is an endothermic process,the closer the electrons are to the nucleus of the atom, the higher the atom's ionization energy.
