the 1st ionization energy is 403.03 kJ/mol.. since it's oxidation state is +1, you don't normally take away more than one electron so the 2nd and 3rd ionization energies are much larger and don't usually matter

Why does rubidium not follow the general trend of ionization energy in its group?

I suppose that this trend is normal.


Which element between lithium potassium rubidium and cesium has the smallest ionization energy?

T he smallest first ionization energyis for lithium.


What elements has the lowest ionization energy element Rb Na C or F?

Element Rb (Rubidium) has the lowest ionization energy among Rb, Na, C, and F. This is because as you move down a group on the periodic table, the ionization energy typically decreases due to the increase in atomic size. Rubidium is located below sodium (Na) in the same group, so it has a lower ionization energy.


Which element has the smallest first ionization energy Na K Rb Li?

The element with the smallest first ionization energy is Francium, as it is located in Group 1 of the periodic table and has the largest atomic size. Among the elements listed, lithium (Li) would have the smallest first ionization energy as it is closer to the upper right of the periodic table compared to sodium (Na), potassium (K), and rubidium (Rb).


What is the group trend for the ionization energy for the alkali metals?

As you go down the group (any group), ionization energy decreases. So in terms of ionization energy, for the alkali metals, Lithium > Sodium > Potassium > Rubidium > Caesium > Francium


What is the maximum wavelength of light in nm required to ionize a single rubidium atom?

The ionization energy of a rubidium atom is about 403 nm. Therefore, the maximum wavelength of light required to ionize a single rubidium atom would be higher than 403 nm.


Which element has a low ionization energy?

Potassium has a low ionization energy due to its large atomic size and one electron in its outermost shell, making it easier to remove that electron.

Why cesium has a lower first ionization energy then rubidium?

Caesium has more electron levels than rubidium, because the electrons are further away the attraction between the outer electrons and protons in the nucleus is less. But that's not just the answer. There is also a thing called electron shielding, the negative charges, of the electrons in the energy levels closer to the nucleus, sort of repel the outer electrons so they can't get closer to the nucleus. Since the electrons are further away and have the attraction from the positively charged nucleus reduced, it takes less energy to break the attraction for caesium than rubidium.


Out of sodium potassium rubidium and cesium Which element has the greatest ionization energy?

Sodium has the greatest ionization energy of the four elements listed from column 1 of a wide form periodic table. Among this group of metals that readily form cations, the largest always has the lowest ionization energy and the smallest has the most. This is generally ascribed to the fact that the valence shell electron is further from the nucleus in the largest element and nearest in the smallest element.


What is the energy needed for ionization called?

The energy needed for ionization is called ionization energy. It is the minimum amount of energy required to remove an electron from an atom or molecule in its gaseous state.
