The electron in is in the level. Take the ground-state ionisation energy of hydrogen as 13.6 eV and 1 eV per atom = . Calculate the energy, in , needed to remove this electron from 1 mol of such ions. Give the answer to the nearest integer.

Numerical answer type, answer in kJ/mol, tolerance 1.

Answer: 2953 kJ/mol

Energy of level in a one-electron ion is eV. Here this is 13.6 x 9/4 = 30.6 eV. Per mole: 30.6 x 96.5 = 2952.9, so about 2953 kJ/mol.
