For li2+ => Ionisation energy of any Hydrogen like elements is given by:-

E = -2.18 × 10⁻¹⁸ (Z²/n²)

For lithium Z = 3 and n = 1

then E = -19.62 × 10⁻¹⁸ Joules.

For the Be3+ => ion the Ionisation energy is 217.6 eV. Again, this is 16 times larger

than the ionization energy for the hydrogen atom.

Now you can find ratio by comparing the value that I have solved.

Hope it helps you,

Answer:

The ionization energy of Li^{2+} and  Be^{3+} ions  are 122.4eV and 217.6eV respectively.

Explanation:

We know,

The ionization energy for Hydrogen atom = 13.6(\frac{Z^{2}}{n^{2}} )eV

where Z is the atomic number

and,  n is principle quantum number which has value equal to 1 for  hydrogen or every hydrogen like ion.

Li^{2+} and Be^{3+} are hydrogen like ions as they have one electron.

The ionization energy for Li^{2+} ion   = 13.6(\frac{3^{2}}{1^{2}} )eV=122.4eV

The ionization energy for  Be^{3+} ion = 13.6(\frac{4^{2}}{1^{2}} )eV=217.6eV

Therefore, I.E. of Li^{2+} and Be^{3+} is equal to 122.4eV and 217.6eV  respectively.
