Ionization Energy - Basic Introduction

This chemistry video tutorial provides a basic introduction into Ionization Energy. It discusses the periodic trends and exceptions as well as providing plenty of examples and practice problems. The first ionization energy is the energy required to remove an electron from a gaseous atom or ion. The second ionization energy is associated with the removal of the second electron. Ionization energy increases with effective nuclear charge but decreases with distance, shielding and electron repulsions. Paired electrons typically have lower ionization energies that unpaired electrons. This explains how to determine which element, and ion has the greater first ionization energy. It covers cations and anions and how to rank elements in order of increasing ionization energy. In addition, it discusses how to identify the element given the ionization energies of that element using valence electrons and core electrons.

I absolutely love it when we're asked how to do stuff that were never taught in lecture

[anthonyrojas]

These lectures get through to my soul man, I'm serious. I cannot keep up with my professor's pace, but your videos clarify everything.

[merkive]

my lecturer is a doctor, you and her have the same tone to your voice, constant. But the thing is I UNDERSTAND WHAT YOU ARE TEACHING thank god

[dilanidassanayake]

Sir your explanations are more than perfect you make chemistry so interesting. Thank you very much sir for working hard to produce these videos .May GOD bless you, I am forever grateful to you.

[eri]

I cant thank you enough, I had no hope for my chemistry As Level but thanks to you i can finally understand what my school failed to do, I hope eveything amazing comes your way.

[natburns]

This man is single-handedly saving my grades in Chem

[friday]

I love your teaching. I really appreciate it. You are gifted and also have perfect voice- warm, clear, right speed, clear explanation.

[Free.palestine]

I understood your lessons more than my professor even I'm not good at English
Because of the difference in language. Good efforts ☺️🌸

[jaipalsingh]

The last example u gave ... Was the most difficult for me to identify untill I watched your video... Thanks for such a good explanation

[georgesadler]

Professor Organic Chemistry Tutor, thank you for a Basic Introduction/Explanation into Ionization Energy in AP/General Chemistry. Once again, the practice problems/problem selections are off the learning charts from start to finish. This is an error free video/lecture on YouTube TV with the Organic Chemistry Tutor.

[torb]

i hope there will be more people like you in the future

[Shimry]

Your explanations are so crystal clear and iam so grateful for your teaching. Thank You so much Sir! for this and for making it free for us to learn. Means a lot!

[Fatoumattajallow]

Seriously you are my teacher in chemistry and physics, 😊 if i don't understand at school, i just come to you

[eikigbecharles]

Once In a life time polymath, and best teacher ever

[Sammi-nmbg]

I luv u mr. organic chemistry tutor theres no words as to how much i appreciate u

[melissajade]

Thank you for making this so easy to understand!!! I'm honestly blown away at how easy it was for me to catch onto this. I went here to understand why ionization isn't used more as a clean propulsion method. Now I truly see why it's such a task. But I won't stop. Those noisy propellers will be a thing of the past! I'm going to build a prototype ion propulsion system for future AVs. Thanks for your time, and explanation. I'll subscribe to the rest of your lessons.

[NaomiKatuta-kpwj]

Ohh my God, am ready for my exam now.May God richly bless you

[meadowfraser]

where are you getting these values my guy

[rocroc]

Ionization energy - is a measure of the capability of an element to enter into chemical reactions requiring ion formation or donation of electrons. It is also generally related to the nature of the chemical bonding in the compounds formed by the elements.

I wish I could like this more than once. So helpful
