Heat of Atomization

Heat of atomization is the quantity of heat energy required to change one mole of an element in its standard state at 298 K to gaseous atoms. Values are reported in kilojoules per mole of atoms.

Heats of atomization of the elements were obtained from Authur James and Mary Lord, VNR INDEX OF CHEMICAL AND PHYSICAL DATA, New York, Van Nostrand Reinhold, 1992.
