4.6 SECTION 4<br />

4.2 IONIZATION ENERGY<br />

TABLE 4.2<br />

Ionization Energy of the Elements<br />

The minimum amount of energy required <strong>to</strong> remove the least strongly bound electron from a gaseous a<strong>to</strong>m<br />

(or ion) is called the ionization energy and is expressed in MJ · mol 1 . Remember that 96.485 kJ 1.000<br />

eV 23.0605 kcal. In Table 4.2 the successive stages of ionization are indicated by the heading of each column:<br />

I denotes first spectra arising from a neutral a<strong>to</strong>m; viz.,<br />

<br />

<br />

M(gas) : M (gas) e<br />

II,second spectra from singly ionized a<strong>to</strong>ms,and so on for successive stages of ionization.<br />
