S1.3 & S3.1 (AHL) Electron configuration
This Higher Level section considers that the limit of convergence at higher frequency in an emission spectrum corresponds to ionization. From this the first ionization energy can be calculated, provided the wavelength or frequency of the convergence limit is known. It goes on to consider the successive ionization data of an element from which its group in the periodic table can be deduced. How can we model the energy...
