The energy of an electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom and the energy required to remove that electron from the ground state of hydrogen atom is   −  2.18  ×      10          –      18        J and   2.18  ×      10          –      18        J.Ionization enthalpy of atomic hydrogen in terms of   J     m  o      l          –      1        =  2.18  ×      10          –      18        ×  6.02  ×      10          23        J     m  o      l          –      1        =  1.31  ×      10    6       J     m  o      l          –      1

Energy of an electron in the ground state of the hydrogen atom is –2.18 * 10:–18 J. Calculate the ionization enthalpy of atomic hydrogen in terms of J mol:–1.
