Which elements has the highest ionization energy?

Helium (He) has the highest ionization energy, then Neon (Ne) Ionization energy increases as you go across a period from left to right. Ionization energy decreases as you go down a group. Therefore, elements in the upper right of the periodic table have the highest ionization energy.


What is taking place with the elements in the s p d p and f blocks?

They relate to the sub orbital type, or the highest energy orbitals that are occupied in a given element that falls under the subsequent block of the periodic table. Plato: Its not D. none of the above


What will be the total energy of atom having negative nucleus and positive electron?

The total energy of an atom with a negative nucleus and positive electron will be negative, given that the electron is bound to the nucleus through electrostatic attraction. This negative energy results from the potential energy associated with the attraction between the oppositely charged particles.


What is happening in an atom when light is given off?

light is given off by an atom when and electron moves from one shell to a lower shell and a specific amount of energy is released in the process (known as a photon). If the wavelength of the released photon are in the spectrum of visible light, we will see it as a specific color based on the wavelength of the photon.


What is happening within the hydrogen atom to create emission lines?

The electron in the atom becomes excited as something adds energy to it, moving it to a higher energy level. When the electron moves back to the normal energy level, called a ground state, it emits light of a given frequency.

Who is theory is All orbits of a given degenerate set must be singly occupied before pairing?

The theory that all orbits of a given degenerate set must be singly occupied before pairing is known as Hund's Rule. It states that electrons will fill degenerate orbitals (orbitals of the same energy level) singly and with parallel spins before any orbital is doubly occupied. This minimizes electron-electron repulsion and stabilizes the atom. Hund's Rule is crucial in understanding the electron configuration of atoms in quantum chemistry.


When kinetic energy is the heighest?

Kinetic Energy is given by,KE = 1/2mv2 So, Kinetic energy is highest when velocity is highest..


What is the highest kinetic energy?

The highest kinetic energy is typically observed in objects with large mass and high velocity. In a given scenario, an object with the highest velocity would have the highest kinetic energy.


What happens to an electron if it is given energy?

An electron emits energy in the form of an x-ray (a photon) when its energy level in the electron cloud decreases as a result of reduction in the excitation level of the cloud. This means that the position of the electron in the cloud changes to a lower level.


Will an electron excite if it is given energy that will allow it to exist in between two energy levels?

Will an electron excite if it is given energy that will allow it to exist in between two energy levels? No An electron can only exist in specific energy levels. Giving an electron more energy can make it escape from the attraction of the protons completely and the atom now has 1 less electron and is a +1 ion. Have you seen an electron discharge tube? If I turn up the power, the tube will become brighter, but the color will not change. The color of light is the product of the electron returning from the excited state to its ground state.

The size and shape of an electron cloud are most closely related to the electron's what?

The size and shape of an electron cloud are most closely related to the electron's energy level and angular momentum, which determine the orbitals in which the electrons are most likely to be found. The electron cloud represents the region where there is a high probability of finding the electron at any given time.


When an electron drops from a higher energy level to a lower energy level is it taken from the environment?

No, when an electron drops from a higher energy level to a lower energy level within an atom, the energy released in the form of a photon is given off by the electron itself, not taken from the environment. This process is known as emission.


What is the difference between electron negativity and electrons affinity?

ok, so electron affinity is the amount of energy given off when a particular atom excepts electrons. Essentially, it is the likelihood that an atom will accept an electron, while ionization energy is how much energy is needed to take an electron off of a particular atom


What is a high energy electron given off during radioactive decay called?

Beta Particles

What element has the lowest ionization energy out of Lithium Boron Oxygen Fluorine Neon?

Among the given elements, neon has the lowest ionization energy. It is in Group 18 (Noble Gases) of the periodic table, and noble gases have the highest ionization energies due to their stable electron configurations.
