Question

What do you mean by Ionization Enthalpy??

Answer 1

Ionization enthalpy of elements refers to the total quantity of energy essential for an isolated gaseous atom to lose an electron in its ground state.

Losing of electrons results in the formation of cations.

It is measured in units of electron volts (eV) per atom or kilocalorie per mole or kilojoules per mole.

1 electron volt is the energy obtained by an electron while moving under a potential difference of 1 volt.

$\huge\bold{Ionization\: Enthalpy}$

It is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from isolated gaseous atom in its ground state.

it is also known as $\small\bold{Ionization\: Potential}$ .
