Ionization energy electron affinity

AH and AS to various notional subprocesses such as bond dissociation energies, ionization energies, electron affinities, heats and entropies of hydration, etc., which themselves have empirically observed values that are difficult to compute ab initio. 

The ionization energy, electron affinity, and orbital occupancy determine the chemical behavior, or reactivity, of the elements. The uppermost (high-est-energy) occupied orbitals are called the valence orbitals the electrons occupying them are the valence electrons. An element s ionization energy, the energy required to remove an electron from a neutral atom, is related to its reactivity A low ionization energy means that the valence electron is readily removed, and the element is likely to become involved in... 

Because the electron has a lower energy when it occupies one of the atom s orbitals, the difference E(C1) — E(Cl-) is positive and the electron affinity of chlorine is positive. Like ionization energies, electron affinities are reported either in electronvolts for a single atom or in joules per mole of atoms. 

All the elements in a main group have in common a characteristic valence electron configuration. The electron configuration controls the valence of the element (the number of bonds that it can form) and affects its chemical and physical properties. Five atomic properties are principally responsible for the characteristic properties of each element atomic radius, ionization energy, electron affinity, electronegativity, and polarizability. All five properties are related to trends in the effective nuclear charge experienced by the valence electrons and their distance from the nucleus.

Ionization may take place by the interaction with a particle sufficiently high in energy, e.g. an electron or a photon, or by the addition of charged species, e.g. an electron or a proton. The thermochemistry associated with the ionization process provides information on ion structures, since a structure may be assigned based on heat of formation when compared to data of reference ions. Thus, the determination of ionization energy, electron affinity and proton affinity plays a central role in mass spectrometry.

The most obvious chemical significance of the electronic structure of atoms lies in the factors that determine ionization energies, electron affinities, and the sizes of atoms. This section looks briefly at some of the trends— vertically and horizontally in the periodic table—in such properties.

In this section we discuss the various atomic properties that are the manifestation of the electronic configurations of the atoms discussed in the previous sections. These properties include ionization energy, electron affinity, electronegativity, etc. Other properties such as atomic and ionic radii will be discussed in subsequent chapters, as these properties are related to the interaction between atoms in a molecule. Toward the end of this section, we will also discuss the influence of relativistic effects on the properties of elements.

The effect of relativity on various properties (e.g. ionization energies, electron affinity etc.) of the eka-lead element 114 in comparison to the other group 14 elements was studied recently by Schwerdtfeger and coworkers486. 

Because of the arrangement of elements on the periodic table, there are several patterns that can be seen between the elements. These patterns, or periodic trends, can be observed for atomic radius, ionic radii, ionization energies, electron affinities, and electronegativities. You should be familiar with the periodic and group trends for each of these.
