Question

why the second ionization energy of lithium is greater than neon ?

Answer 1

Explanation:

second ionisation energy of lithium is not greater than neon because its formula is 13.6Z^2

Answer 2

Answer:

IONIZATION ENERGY(IE1) &(IE2)

Explanation:

THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF ENERGY REQUIRED TO REMOVE AN ELECTRON FROM AN ISOLATED NEUTRAL GASEOUS ATAOM IS CALLED FIRST IONIZATION ENERGY

THE MINIMUM AMOUNT OF ENERGY REQUIRED TO REMOVE AN ELECTRON FROM AN UNPOSITIVE GASEOUS ION IS CALLED SECOND IONIZATION ENERGY..

SECOND IONIZATION ENERGY IS GREATER THAN FIRST IONIZATION ENERGY

REASON: IN A NEUTRAL ATOM THE NO. OF ELECTRON IS EQUAL TO THE NO. OF PROTONS BUT IN UNPOISTIVE ION THE NO. OF PROTONS IS GREATER THAN THE NO. OF ELECTRONS

SO THE UNPOSITIVE ION IS MORE

THAN POSITIVE GASEOUS ATOM
