This question does not involve a chemical reaction. True, no chemical reaction can ionize hydrogen. When hydrogen in the ground state is ionized to the plasma state, it requires 13 electron volts. per atom. On Mon, Jan 26, 2015 at 2:47 PM, Jed Rothwell jedrothw...@gmail.com wrote: Bob Higgins

I don't know why you think it is impossible. Energy storage in ions may be impractical for any significant energy storage, but the ionization energy is exactly as he describes. Even though it was described as energy/mole, it is no different than saying 13.6 eV/atom. No one ever said a mole
