Question 9 • *26-27 CFISD TX-Chemistry A CR
The second ionization energy removes an electron from an atom that has already lost one electron, forming a 2+ ion. Calcium loses two electrons to form Ca²⁺, so this is the ion associated with the second ionization. N³⁻ and S²⁻ are negative ions formed by gaining electrons, while Fe³⁺ requires removing three electrons.
