which takes more energy, removing an electron from an atom where the nucleus has a tight hold on its electrons, or a weak hold on its electron? Explain.

Respuesta :

When it has a tight hold it will take more energy to remove an electron because there is a tighter bond among the electrons so it is hard to take away

Removing an electron from an atom where the nucleus has a tight hold on

its electrons takes more energy.

A nucleus having a tight hold on its electrons means that the force of

attraction is great. This happens as a result of the element not wanting to

react with other elements or compounds because of its attainment of a stable configuration.

A greater force or energy is therefore needed to remove electrons which

have a tight hold on its electrons.
