NGSS.HS-PS1-2

Select ALL that explain the ionization energy trend within periods going left to right

• electrons are closer to the nucleus

• their is a weak pull between electrons from the nucleus, making them easily moveable

• feel more of a pull from nucleus, making them harder to move

• electrons are further from the nucleus

 After the atom is ionized, it then requires more energy to remove a second electron because the second electron is nearer the nucleus.

• False
• True

Why is there a large jump in ionization energy 1 and 2 for Lithium?

• the valence electrons are harder to lose than core electrons
