| 04. Calculate the ionisation potential for a lithium atom. |
| |
| Suggested solution: |
| |
| For an atom other than hydrogen, |
| |
 |
| |
| For lithium atom, Z = 3 |
| |
| So ionisation potential of lithium atom is the energy required to remove an electron (valence electron) from second orbit to infinity. |
