What element in the noble gases family has the highest ionization energy?

Fluorine...
it has seven valence electrons and really wants to achieve noble gas configuration (8 out of 8 possible valance electrons). It already has seven and since it is so close to eight, it is very attached to them. It refuses to give them up easily. The more an element "wants" it's electrons the higher ionization energy it will have.

What element in family IA has the lowest ionization energy?
the lowest ionization energy in IA :hydrogen ,lithiun ,sodium and potassium
How Which element require the greatest amount of energy to remove an electron?
Core electrons. Probably the 1s level would require the most ionization energy to pull these electrons.
Does the first ionization energy increase or decrease from top to bottom for the noble gas family?
The first ionization energy decrease from top to bottom for the noble gas family.
Which family of the periodic table has the strongest tendency to lose electrons and why?
This is the alkali metals family; the ionization energy is lower for these chemical elements.
An atom of an element in family VIA will have what charge when it is ionized?
Ionization can have any number of causes, resulting in any number of ionization states ranging from ±1 to ±(atomic number) for any given atom. In the given context, however, I would assume the actual question intended is, "What is the preferential ionic state of ionically bonded atoms in the VIA periodic family?" The answer to this question is -2.

What element has 3 energy levels and belongs to the most unreactive group?
The element is 'argon' and belongs to noble gas family.
What is an element with a single electron in its highest energy level is probably what type of metal?
An element with two electrons in its highest energy level is probably an alkaline earth metal. More specifically, it is likely magnesium or calcium, as these are the most common alkaline earth metals.
What is the first of the noble gas family whose highest energy level consists of an octet of electrons?
Neon
How does ionization energy down a group relate to trend in atomic radius as atomic number increases down a group?
ionization energies (IE) have to do with things called ions. Ions are atoms which have gained or lost electrons. The ionization energy is the amount of energy it takes to detach one electron from a neutral atom. Some elements actually have several ionization energies. When this is the case, we refer to them as the "first ionization energy" or 'I', "second ionization energy" or 'I2', and so on. Notice that the energy variable follows Ii where i is the orbital from which the electron is lost. Ionization is endothermic meaning that the atom or molecule increases its internal energy (takes energy from an outside source).
Does the first ionization energy increase or decrease from top to bottom in periodic table for the alkali metal family?
It decreases as the atom radius gets larger, so it decreases from top to bottom.
Why does ionization energy decrease down the family?
You question is not very clearly stated but I think I know what you are asking. As you go down the column of any family of elements in the periodic table, you move to increasingly heavier and larger atoms. Their outer electrons are therefore farther from the nucleus, and even though the nucleus is larger and has a larger positive charge, the increased distance is the predominant influence, making the outermost electrons less tightly bound, and therefore more easily ionized, with a lower ionization energy.
What exceptions are there in the increase of ionization energies across a period?
Boron and Oxygen Family
