ionization
« on: March 24, 2011, 10:05:40 AM »
Excuse me, but I have a very basic question. I don't understand completely why some atoms and/or compounds do not ionize. Can you explain it on some examples.

Thank you very much.

ionize, as in form charged ions in water you mean?
In vacuum you can ionize all practical elements as far as I know, though some cost more energy than others
