Answer:
These three factors are required for ionization potential or ionization energy.
Explanation:
Ionization potential refers to the amount of energy which is required for the removal of outermost electron of the atom. If the atom size is big so the outermost electron is far from the nucleus and low energy is required for its removal due to lower force of attraction between nucleus and outermost electron. If the nuclear charge is higher, so the electron is tightly held by the nucleus and require more energy for its removal. Nuclear charge means number of protons present in the nucleus.
Answer:
Electrons
Explanation:
In an atom there would be three subatomic particles: Neutrons, electrons, protons. The smallest and lightest in terms of mass is electrons. This is because the nucleus is comprised of the protons and the neutrons, these have a greater mass than electrons as electrons has very little mass that can considered to be 0.

Answer:
sp3 hybridization
Explanation:
Hybridization means the mixing of atomic orbitals to yield hybrid orbitals with characteristics that are different from that of the isolated atomic orbitals before the combination.
sp3 hybridization occurs when one s orbital is mixed with three p orbitals to yield four sp3 hybrid orbitals which can be used to bond to a central atom.
The central atom is then located at the center of a regular tetrahedron at a bond angle of 109°.
