Question

in which atoms will the electrons need the most energy to escape​

Answer 1

Answer:

In atoms with a single electron the energy of an orbital is determined exclusively by the principle quantum number n. The n=1 orbital has the lowest possible energy in the atom. For large n, the energy increases so much that the electron can easily escape from the atom.
