Ionization energy (I. E.) is the energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion.
• First I.E. corresponds to removing the first valence electron from a neutral atom
• Second I.E. refers to removing a second electron
• Third I.E. refers to removing the third electron
First ionization energy → removing the first valence electron from neutral Mn
Mn(g) → Mn+(g) + e-
The seventh ionization energy of manganese. Express your answer as a chemical equation. Identify all of the phases in your answer.
