Ionization Potential of Gallium (Ga) [& Color, Uses, Discovery ... 2022

Ionization potention is the amount of energy required to remove an electron from Gallium. But what is the ionization potential of an atom of Ga?

Note: Learn more about the ionization potential here.

In the case of Gallium the first ionization potential is 5.9993 V. There are cool and interesting facts about Gallium that most people don't know about. Including the possibility of different ionization potentials. Check this...
