The Curium Ionization Energy is the energy required to remove from atom one mole of electrons with subsequent production of positively charged ion of Curium.
Cm -> Cm+ + e-
This process can be repeated many times, but the energy cost is increased dramatically. The general equation for the Curium is:
CmN+ -> Cm(N+1)+ + e-

Cm -> Cm1+ = 581 kJ/mol = 139.00 Kcal/mol
