Standard enthalpy change of formation The enthalpy change that takes place when one mole of a compound is formed from its constituent elements in their standard states under standard conditions

Enthalpy change of atomisation Enthalpy change that takes place when one mole of gaseous atoms forms from its constituent elements under standard conditions

First ionisation energy Enthalpy change accompanying the removal of one electron from each atom in one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous atoms to form one mole of gaseous 1+ ions.

Second ionisation energy The enthalpy change accompanying the removal of one electron from each ion in one mole of gaseous 1+ ions to form one mole of gaseous 2+ ions
