They can be listed in any standard form of energy. They are generally listed in Electron Volts (eV) or kilojoules per mol (KJ/mol).

Is ionization potential and ionization energy same?

Yes. If the units are eV (electron volts) this is called ionization potential, if the units are kJ/mol then this ionization energy. The conversion between the units is:- 96.485 kJ/mol = 1 eV/particle) Historically it was always called ionization potential as that reflected the method of measurement.


What is ionization potentials?

Ionization potential is the energy required to remove one electron from an atom in the gaseous state. The units may be eV(electron volts) or kJ/mol. These are readily interconverted. Usually the ionization potentials for successive electrons are quoted as the first ionization potential, second ionization potential etc.


Which element has got the highest ionisation potential in the periodic table?

Nitrogen has the highest first Ionization potential.


What is the difference between ionization radiation and radiation?

Ionizaton is the process in which molecular compounds dissolve in water. Dissociation is the process in which positive and negative ions of an ionic solid mix with the solvent to form a solution. Hope This Helped!! ~Starcoach25(:


Which determines the reactivity of the elements?

Roughly, first ionization potential and electron affinity.


Ionization potential of helium in 2nd ionization state?

The ionization potential for unionized helium is 24.6 eV, the potential for singly ionized Helium is 54.4 eV. Helium has only two electrons, so there is no way to ionize the doubly ionized helium. (So there also is not a potential associated with this process.)


What is the unit of acid ionization constant?

the acid ionization constant (Ka) has no units


What is the energy needed to remove electrons from an atom called?

ionization potential energy. but remember the atom must be neutral .


What is the ionization potential of lead?

The electron affinity of lead is 35.1 kJ mol-1. The first ionization potential is 7.4167 eV, the second 15.028 eV, and the third 31.943 eV.


Why 2nd ionization potential is greter than 1st ionisation potential of element?

In the first ionization an electron is removed from a neutral atom. In the second ionization an electron is removed from a positively charged ion. Since electrons carry a negative charge and opposite charges attract it is more difficult (i.e. takes more energy) to remove.


What is the name of a charge that an ion takes on?

Ionization Potential
