The higher the ionization energy...
the more attracted the valence electron is to the nucleus so it is harder to remove
the less attracted the valence electron is to the nucleus so it is easier to remove
the more attracted the valence electron is to another electron, so it is harder to remove
the more repelled a valence electron is to another electron, so it is easier to remove
Why does ionization energy decrease going down a group?
Adding more energy levels makes the electrons further from the nucleus resulting in a smaller attraction and thus less energy is needed to remove the electron.
There are more valence electrons in the outer shell so the electron is easier to remove due to electron repulsion.
There are more protons in the nucleus so the electron is easier to remove
There are less protons in the nucleus so the electron is easier to remove
Why doesn't having more protons increase the attraction down a column?
there are more valence electrons in the outermost energy level
actually, there aren't more protons in the nucleus down the column
as energy levels are added, the increase in electrons counteracts the increase in protons as it shields the valence electrons.
more neutrons block the extra protons
