ionise
Strip electrons away
Ionise is the British spelling of ionize—to convert atoms or molecules into ions by adding or removing electrons.
Radiation ionises gases.
Acids ionise when dissolved in water, releasing hydrogen ions.
The process is fundamental to chemistry and physics: The UV light ionises the air molecules.
Also: ionisation.
