Supposing the energy of fourth shell of hydrogen atom is -50 a.u. (arbitrary unit). What would be its ionization potential ? |
| Answer» DUE to stable half filled p-orbital the nitrogen molecule does not want to lose electrons easily. Therefore its first ionization POTENTIAL is greater than that of oxygen but less than FLUORINE. Because Nitrogen has a HIGHER affinity for its electrons than Oxygen does for the first ionization level. | |
