Ionization energy (IE) is the amount of energy required to remove an electron.
If you observe the IEs sequentially, there is a large gap between the 2nd and 3rd. This suggests it is difficult to remove more than 2 two electrons. Elements that lose two electrons to become more stable are found in the Group 2A (2 representing the number of electrons in the outermost valence shell).
The value of log₂(x/4) is 22. Using the properties of the logarithm, the required value is calculated.
<h3>What are the required properties of the logarithm?</h3>
The required logarithm properties are
logₐx = n ⇒ aⁿ = x; and logₐ(xⁿ) = n logₐ(x);
Where a is the base of the logarithm.
<h3>Calculation:</h3>
It is given that,
log₄(x) = 12;
On applying the property logₐx = n ⇒ aⁿ = x; here a = 4;
So,
log₄(x) = 12 ⇒ 4¹² = x
⇒ x = (2²)¹² = 2²⁴
Then, calculating log₂(x/4):
log₂(x/4) = log₂(2²⁴/4)
= log₂(2²⁴/2²)
= log₂(2²⁴ ⁻ ²)
= log₂(2²²)
On applying the property logₐ(xⁿ) = n logₐ(x);
log₂(x/4) = 22 log₂2
We know that logₐa = 1;
So,
log₂(x/4) = 22(1)
∴ log₂(x/4) = 22.

Boyle's Law: P₁V₁ = P₂V₂
- P₁ is pressure 1
- V₁ is volume 1
- P₂ is pressure 2
- V₂ is volume 2
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
<u>Step 1: Define</u>
[Given] P₁ = 2.02 atm
[Given] V₁ = 4.0 L
[Given] V₂ = 12.0 L
[Solve] P₂
<u>Step 2: Solve</u>
- Substitute in variables [Boyle's Law]: (2.02 atm)(4.0 L) = P₂(12.0 L)
- [Pressure] Multiply: 8.08 atm · L = P₂(12.0 L)
- [Pressure] [Division Property of Equality] Isolate unknown: 0.673333 atm = P₂
- [Pressure] Rewrite: P₂ = 0.673333 atm
<u>Step 3: Check</u>
<em>Follow sig fig rules and round. We are given 2 sig figs as our smallest.</em>
0.673333 atm ≈ 0.67 atm
