Which ionization energy requires the most energy to remove an electron from an atom?

How many distinct ionization energy values are required to remove all electrons from a neutral aluminum (Al) atom?

Which of the following elements has the greatest first ionization energy?

When ionization energy is supplied to an atom, which of the following can be removed from the atom?

Which of the following is the correct value for the first ionization energy of doubly ionized lithium (Li^{2+}), where Z = 3? Use the formula E = -13.6 ext{ eV} imes Z^2 / n^2 for hydrogen-like ions, and recall that the first ionization energy is the energy required to remove the only electron from the n = 1 state.
