The first ionization energy decrease from top to bottom for the noble gas family.


Which element has a higher first ionization energy than chlorine Cl?

Ionization energy decrease down the group.So in halogens,Fluorine has highest 1st ionization energy.


How does the first ionization energy change going down and across the periodic table?

In a group the first ionization energy decrease going down.In a period the first ionization energy increase from left to right.


Does the first ionization energy increase or decrease when you go down a group?

it increases


What is the group trend in the first ionization energies and why?

1. The ionization energy decrease down in the group.2. The cause is that the distance between the nucleus and the electron shell increase and the needed energy to extract an electron decrease.


What elements have the highest and lowest ionization energy?

Helium has the highest first ionization energy and francium has the lowest first ionization energy.

What element has largest first ionization energy?

Helium has the highest ionization energy.


What is the general trend of ionization energy as you go across the periodic table?

Across a period, first ionization energy increases. However, when going down a group, first ionization energy generally decreases. As you go down a group, atoms hove more total electrons so they don't really care that much about their outermost ones.
