In this video, we're going to talk a little bit about the relationship between ionization energy and electron affinity.
00:06
So we know that ionization energy is going to be the energy that's required to remove an electron in a form of positive ion, positive ion, and an electron goes away.
00:20
So we know that as we go upwards, the ionization energy gets higher because the size gets smaller and then across.
00:34
So ionization energy is increasing going this way.
00:38
And the elements with the large first ionization energy, so these ones that don't like to form positive ions, the non -metals, also have highly exothermic electron affinity.
00:50
So electron affinity is going to be the energy value associated with if you attach an electron to an atom.
00:58
So if something doesn't want to lose its electrons, actually this is confusing, so i'm just going to.

Can i just erase this whole thing? there we go...
