Ionization energy

In physics and chemistry, ionization energy, or ionisation energy is the minimum energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron of an isolated gaseous atom, positive ion, or molecule. The f

In quantum mechanics, an atomic orbital is a function describing the location and wave-like behavior of an electron in an atom. This function describes an electron's charge distribution around the ato
Ionization energy
…Hydrogen's ionization energy is very high (at 13.59844 eV), compared to the alkali metals. This is due to its single electron (and hence, very small electron cloud), which is close to the nucleus. Likewise, since there are not any other electrons that may cause shielding, that single electron experiences the full…
