ionization potential energy. but remember the atom must be neutral .
The second ionization energy of Group 1 elements is greater because after losing one electron, the remaining electron is held more tightly by the nucleus due to the higher effective nuclear charge, making it more difficult to remove. In contrast, the first ionization energy is lower because the outer electron is farther from the nucleus and experiences less attraction.
hydrogen has only one electron so after you remove that electron you do not have any electrons left to remove so hydrogen doesn't have a 2nd ionization energy. hydrogen has 1 proton and 1 electron.
The first ionization energy is the energy that is required in order to remove the first electron from an atom in the GAS phase, the second ionization energy is the energy required to remove the second electron from an atom in the GAS phase. Ionization energy will generally increase for every electron that is removed and increases from left to right in the periodic table and moving up the periods.
Ionization energies are the amount of energy needed to remove an electron from an atom in the gaseous state, thereby giving the atom a positive charge and making it an ion. Ions get a +1 charge for each electron lost. It is this positive charge of the atom that makes the second ionization energy considerably greater than the first. Not only does the second electron have to overcome the initial attractive forces to nucleus, it must also overcome the extra +1 charge the atom has after the loss of the first electron, which simply takes more energy.
The second ionization energy of calcium is greater than that of potassium. This is because calcium, with its higher nuclear charge and smaller atomic size compared to potassium, holds onto its electrons more tightly.
First ionization energy is the energy required to remove the first outermost electron from an atom. The second ionization energy is the energy required to remove the next available electron, and is greater than the first IE. The third IE is that energy needed to remove the third electron, and is greater the the second IE.
The first ionization energy is the energy required to remove the outermost electron from an atom, forming a positively charged ion. The second ionization energy is the energy required to remove the second electron, and so on. Each successive ionization energy tends to increase because it becomes increasingly difficult to remove electrons from a positively charged ion.
Sodium has only one valence electron, and when that is donated to some other atom, the remaining ion has a noble gas configuration that is highly stable. Disrupting that by another ionization requires much energy. Magnesium has two valence electrons; therefore the second is almost as easy to donate as the first. The third ionization enthalpy of magnesium would be very high.

The second ionization energy for lithium is greater than the first because removing the second electron requires breaking a stronger bond due to the higher effective nuclear charge after the first electron is removed. This leads to a greater energy input to remove the second electron compared to the first.
No. Calcium has TWO valence electrons, and Sodium has ONE. It is lot easier to take off one, than two you see. However, the second ionization energy of calcium IS however than the second ionization energy of Sodium. ;)

The second ionization energy is always greater than the first because once you have pulled off the first electron, you are now trying to remove the second electron from a positively charge ion. Because of the electrostatic attraction between + and -, it is more difficult to pull an electron away from a positively charge ion than a neutral atom.
