Data are taken from the wavenumber compilation of Moore (1970) unless otherwise noted, and converted using the 2006 CODATA recommended values:[1][Note 1]

1 cm−1 = 0.000 123 984 1875(31) eV = 0.011 903 713 931(12) kJ mol−1
Z Element Ionization energy Ref.
(eV) (kJ mol−1)
1 Hydrogen 13.598 432 44(36) 1305.584 631(12)
2 Helium 24.587 3985(14) 2360.634 56(12)
3 Lithium 5.391 718 96(64) 517.658 593(60)
4 Beryllium 9.322 6277(13) 895.064 89(12)
5 Boron 8.298 024(18) 800.6377(17) [2][3][Note 2]
6 Carbon 11.260296(12) 796.6930(12)

Notes

  1. Moore used the conversion factor 1 cm−1 = 0.000 123 981 eV, which is 26 ppm lower than the current value. Moore's value in electronvolts are widely reprinted without correction.
  2. The results from Moore (1970) were also used in evaluating the weighted mean.
