The first ionization potentials (in eV) of As and Se atoms, respectively, are:
On moving across a period, the atomic size decreases and nuclear charge increases and therefore the force of attraction exerted by the nucleus on the electron in the outermost shell increases. The first ionization potentials (in eV) of As and Se atoms, respectively, are:
The first ionization potentials in electron volts of nitrogen and oxygen atoms are respectively given by
The first ionization potential in electron volts of nitrogen and oxygen atoms respectively are given by
