Would you expect the first ionization enthalpies for two isotopes of the same element to be the same or different? Justify your answer.

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

Two isotopes of the same element have same number of electrons, same nuclear charge, same size and hence they are expected to have same ionisaton enthalpy.
