What are the factors effecting the atomization ? (in short)
Accepted Answer
The factors affecting atomization are:
1. Nature of the bond: The strength of the bond between the atoms affects the energy required to break the bond and form atoms.
2. Bond enthalpy: This is the amount of energy required to break a bond. Bonds with higher bond enthalpies require more energy to break and thus have a lower degree of atomization.
3. Temperature: As the temperature increases, the average kinetic energy of the atoms increases, making it easier to break bonds and form atoms.
4. Pressure: Increasing pressure decreases the degree of atomization because it favors the formation of molecules over atoms.
