First ionization energy

Andru [333]

Answer:

The first ionization energy is defined as

Energy which is required to pull out one mole of the outermost shell's electrons in a neutral atom from one mole of gaseous atoms to produce 1 mole of gaseous ions each with a charge of 1+.
$A\to A^++ e^{-}$ , where A is any neutral atom.
In the periodic table, Its value decreases from top to bottom in groups and increases from left to right across a particular period.
Helium has the largest first ionization energy.
Francium has one of the lowest.
