Practice: Which of the following represents the third ionization of Mn?
Successive Ionization Energies deals with the removal of multiple electrons from a gaseous atom or ion through multiple steps.
Concept #1: Periodic Trend: Successive Ionization Energies
Example #1: Provide the fourth ionization energy equation for a manganese atom.
Concept #2: Successive Ionization Energies
After an element gains an a noble gas electron configuration, there will be a large jump in ionization energy to remove the next electron.
Example #2: Of the following atoms, which has the smallest increase for its second ionization energy?
Practice: Which of the following represents the third ionization of Mn?
Practice: Of the following atoms, which has the largest third ionization energy?
Practice: The successive ionization energies for an unknown element are:
IE1 = 896 kJ/mol IE2 = 1752 kJ/mol IE3 = 14,807 kJ/mol IE4 = 17,948 kJ/mol
To which family in the periodic table does the unknown element most likely belong?
