Expert Answer:
Ionization energy is the minimum energy required to remove the most loosely bound electron from atom of an element in its ground state. According to IUPAC covention about sign of energy, if energy enters the system, its sign is positive and if energy leaves the system, its sign is negative. In case of ionization energy, energy is always given to the system, hence it is always positive.

- The wavelength of a spectral line for an electronic transition is inversely proportional to : (1) number of electrons undergoing transition (2) the nuclear charge of the atom (3) the velocity of an electron undergoing transition (4) the difference in the energy involved in the transition
- a photon of 3000 Angstrom is absorbed by a gas and then re-elected as two photons. One photon is red 7600 Angstrom . What wavelength of other photon? Here I am knowing solution but I am not able to understand that why we are using formula ( h*c/lambda of total = h*c/lambda of 1 +h*c / lambda of 2 ) Please solve it
