Question

The ionisation energy of hydrogen atom is 13.6 eV and the first ionisation energy of helium is 24.6 eV

Moderate
Question

What is the first ionisation energy of He+ (isoelectronic of H-atom)?

Solution

IHgg  H+g+e                         IEH=13.6eVIIHgg  He+g+e                       IEHefirst=24.6eVIIIHe+g  He2+g+e                 IEHesecond=?=q

By Bohr's theory of H-atom

IEz=IEH=Z2n2IEHe+=13.62212

= 54.4 eV 

Question

What is the enthalpy change of the following process 

He2+(g)+2eHe(g)

Solution

 

Heg  He2+g+2e

ΔH=24.6+q=79.0eV

Hence for He2+g+2e  Heg

ΔH=79.0eV

Note : Second ionisation energy He(g) is the first ionisation of He+ (g).

Heg  He+g+eIE1  of  Heg

He+g  He2+g+eIE2  of  Heg

IE1  of  He+  g

Question

To which of the following species the above formulae or concept is inapplicable

Solution

Boron has five electrons and +3 means it has now two electron, the concept is mainly applicable to one electron species.
