Ionization Potential of Rhenium (Re) [& Color, Uses, Discovery ... 2022

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

Note: Learn more about the ionization potential here.

In the case of Rhenium the first ionization potential is 7.88 V. There are cool and interesting facts about Rhenium that most people don't know about. Including the possibility of different ionization potentials. Check this...
