What is the definition of Ionisation Energy?
Energy required to remove 1 mole of electrons from one mole of gaseous atoms
1 of 5
Name 3 reasons why ionisation energy increases across a period.
Nuclear charge increases, atomic radius decreases and repulsion of electrons in a pair while shielding remains the same.
2 of 5
Why does ionisation energy decrease down a group?
More inner filled energy levels so shielding increases and atomic radius decreases
3 of 5
Why does electronegativity increase across period 3?
Proton number increases so their is a greater attraction of electrons in a covalent bond
4 of 5
How is atomic radii measured?
Half the distance between between centres of 2 of the same atoms in a covalent bond
