What is first ionisation energy?
The energy needed to remove one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous +1 ions.
1 of 13
What is successive ionisation energy?
The energy required to remove each electron in turn.
2 of 13
Where is the first electron removed from?
The outer shell as it's the highest energy electron.
3 of 13
Why is ionisation always an endothermic process?
Energy is required to overcome the attraction between the positive nucleus and negative electron that is being removed.
4 of 13
What are three factors that affect the first ionisation energy?
1)Atomic radius. 2)Electron shielding. 3)Nuclear charge.
5 of 13
What effect does increasing atomic radius have on first ionisation energy?
Ionisation energy decreases.
6 of 13
What effect does increasing electron shielding have on first ionisation energy?
Ionisation energy decreases.
7 of 13
What effect does increasing nuclear charge have on ionisation energy?
Ionisation energy increases.
8 of 13
What effect does increasing nuclear attraction have on first ionisation energy?
Ionisation energy increases.
9 of 13
What is the trend in ionisation energy as you go down a group?
First ionisation energy decreases.
10 of 13
What is the trend in ionisation energy as you go across a period?
First ionisation energy increases.
11 of 13
What is the trend in successive ionisation energy as each electron is removed?
It increases as proton:electron ratio increases,remaining electrons closer to nucleus.overall nuclear attraction increases.
12 of 13
Why is there sometimes a large increase in ionisation energy?
Outermost electron is in a new shell closer to nucleus, less shielding, overall nuclear attraction increases.
