Short Answer TypeEnergy of an electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom is -2.18 X 10-18J. Calculate the ionization enthalpy of atomic hydrogen in terms of J mol-1.
The enthalpy required removing an electron in the ground state of hydrogen atom
= - (its energy in the ground state)
= -(-2.18 x 10-18 J)
= 2.18 x 10-18 J
∴ Ionization enthalpy per mole of hydrogen atoms
Long Answer TypeShort Answer TypeDiscuss in brief the factors which influence the magnitude of electron gain enthalpy.
The electron gain enthalpy of fluorine has less negative value than that of chlorine while it is expected to be more. Explain.
Explain which of the following will have the most negative electron gain enthalpy and which the least negative: P, S, CI, F.
