The electronic configuration of a certain element known as element E, is      1s22s22p4.   Write a balanced equation to represent the first (1st) ionization energy of element E. Use “E” as the symbol of the element. Include the physical states.     B) Either: Sketch and insert a graph showing the general form which you would expect for the eight ionization energies of element E, labelling the axes.
