Energy of an electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom is- 2.18 x 10-18 J.Calculate the ionization enthalpy of atomic hydrogen in terms of JMol-1.[Hint: Apply the idea of mole concept to derive the answer],
The ionisation enthalpy is for 1 mole atoms. Therefore, ground state energy of the , atoms may be expressed as E (ground state) = ( – 2.18 x 10-18 J) x(6.022 x 1023 mol-1)= -1.312 x 106 J mol-1
Ionisation enthalpy =E∞–E ground state
= 0-(-1.312 x 106mol-1)
= 1.312 x 106 J mol-1.
