It's going to be pretty high, since xenon is a noble gas, and doesn't naturally react with anything, therefore it's not going to naturally want to lose an electron. It can be made to, however, and it's a lot easier for it to lose one than any noble gas above it, because xenon's octet of valence electrons is farther from the nucleus than the others (except radon) so a. it will have a lower ionization energy, b. the octet will experience more nuclear shielding, and c. it will be potentially more reactive (though again, it's not natural.)

What is the energy needed to remove electrons from an atom called?
ionization potential energy. but remember the atom must be neutral .
Whose first ionization energy is higher oxygen or carbon?
The first ionization energy for carbon is 1 086,5 kJ/mol. The first ionization energy for oxygen is 1 319,9 kJ/mol.
What is ionization energy of boron?
Across a row on the periodic table ionization energy increases. Down a column, ionization energy decreases. --------------------------------------------------------- The first Ionization energy of Boron is 800.6 kJ mol-1
Which element in the fifth period has the highest ionization energy?
xenon increases from left to right across periods (first ionization energy)
Why Xenon can form compounds with fluorine?
The size of xenon allows the inner electrons to shield the valence shell electrons reducing the ionization energy. The ionization energy is only low enough to allow reactions with the most electronegative elements.
What elements have the highest and lowest ionization energy?
Helium has the highest first ionization energy and francium has the lowest first ionization energy.
Do nonmetals have a low first ionization energy?
No. Nonmetals have a high first ionization energy.

The first ionization energy is 1681 kJ/mol.
What elements has the highest first ionization energy?
Fluorine has the largest first ionization energy among the halogens.
What is the energy needed to remove electrons from an atom called?
ionization potential energy. but remember the atom must be neutral .

The first magnesium ionization energy is 737,7 kJ/mol.
What is einsteinium's ionization energy?
The ionization energy (first) of einsteinium is 619 kJ/mol.
What is nitrogen's ionization energy?
The first ionization energy of nitrogen is 1402.3 kJ/mol.
