An extra shell, which means further distance between those electrons in the valence shell and the nucleus. Ionisation energy refers to the energy required to remove valence electrons. There will be more energy required if the valence electrons are closer to the nucleus that have a positive charge, because of more attraction. If there is an extra shell, there is further distance, less attraction and hence less energy required.

A teacher did an experiment to show the movement of particles in solids, liquids, and gases. The experimental set-up is shown be
Fed [463]

Answer is: Solid is represented when pulled slowly, liquid when pulled fast, gas when pulled vigorously.

For example, nitrogen molecules have weakest intermolecular bonds in gas phase and move fast and without order.

Cooling is change from liquids to solids. In solid state (for example ice) movement of molecules is more slow than movement of molecules in liquids (for example water).

In solid, molecules are closely packed, stiff and do not changes of shape or volume. Solid object (for example iron) does not take on the shape of its container.  

Liquids have definite volume, but no fixed shape.  

Gases (for example nitrogen and neon) not have definite volume and fixed shape, it depends on its container.
