Ionization energy is the minimum energy required to remove an electron from a ground state atom. According to the relationship developed by Neils Bohr, the total energy of an electron in a stable orbit of quantum number n is equal to En=-[Z2/n2].

Do noble gasses ionize?

You can ionize them under certain conditions. The difficulty is that the ionization energy is high as they have a stable octet.

Does the gas in a bulb affect a bulb's brightness?

Yes, coupled with the amount of energy that is imparted to it. The more energy that is applied, the brighter the light until you reach the full saturation level. Different gasses ionize and emit their photons at different energy levels and wavelengths depending on the gas being used. For instance, it takes less energy to ionize Neon than it does to ionize Argon.


How do you measure the PH value of hydrocarbon?

Since hydrocarbons do not dissolve in water, they have no pH. That is to say, they do not influence the concentration of either hydrogen or hydroxide ions. They do contain hydrogen, but the hydrogen in a hydrocarbon does not ionize.
