There are different kinds of theories. The the "jump" occurs for successive ionization energies between the second and third ionization energies.
What leads to the jump in successive ionization energies?
This often takes place when electrons are said to be removed in succession from a specific element.
This transition from the removal of valence electrons to the removal of core electrons leads to a large jump in ionization energy.
