Ionization Energy of Holmium (Ho) [& State, Uses, Discovery ... 2022

Atoms like Holmium may lose electrons, which in turn require ionization energy. Ok but how much ionization is required for an atom of Ho?

Note: Learn more about ionization energy here.

In the case of Holmium the first ionization energy is 581.0 kilojoules per mole. Now let me show you some cool facts about Holmium:

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.

To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

Luz, Gelson. "Ionization Energy of Holmium (Ho) [& State, Uses, Discovery ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
