The ionization energies of Calcium are (in KJ/mol): 1st: 589.8 2nd: 1145.4 3rd: 4912.4
Explain why there is such a large jump from 2nd to 3rd ionization energy.
pleaseeee i need help, my brain is just not getting it

Answer:

See whole explanation to understand

Explanation:

the reason why there is such a large jump from 2nd to 3rd ionization energy for calcium is because to remove the third electron, a larger amount of energy is required, since the shell is closer to the nucleus, and higher attraction exists between them. This is why the second ionization energy is 1125.4 and then the third IE is 4912.4 which is a very big difference. It's all about the elections and energy!!

Answer:

The ionization peak

Explanation:

i believe its due to the electron affinity, although im not sure.
