Define first ionisation energy
The first ionisation energy is the enthalpy change when one mole of gaseous
atoms forms one mole of gaseous ions with a single positive charge
Define second ionisation energy
The second ionisation energy is the enthalpy change when one mole of
gaseous ions with a single positive charge forms one mole of gaseous
ions with a double positive charge
Define mole
The mole is the amount of substance in grams that has the same
number of particles as there are atoms in 12 grams of carbon-12.
Define relative atomic mass
Relative atomic mass is the average mass of one atom
compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon-12
Define relative molecular mass
Relative molecular mass is the average mass of a molecule
compared to one twelfth of the mass of one atom of carbon-12
