What is meant by ionisation energy?

Short Answer
Advertisements

Solution

The energy needed to transfer an electron from its ground state energy level to its free state is known as the ionisation energy of an atom. The ionisation energy measures an element’s ability to participate in chemical processes that call for the creation of ions or the donation of electrons.
