How are London forces (Van Der Waals) formed?

This is the weakest intermolecular force. It is formed by the uneven distribution of electrons in a molecule which induces a dipole in the molecule (meaning a delta positive and delta negative charge form...

Explain the trend in first ionisation energies across a period.

There is a general increase in the ionisation energy as we move across a period. This is because the the number of shielding electrons is constant and the atomic number increases, which means the effect...

Why does ionisation energy increase across a period?

As you go across the period, the nuclear charge (or number of protons increase) but the shielding (or the number of shells) stays the same as all of the elements are on the same period. This causes the nu...
