Answer:
The minimum amount of energy which is needed to remove the most loosely bounded electron from a neutral isolated gaseous atom in its ground state to form a cation also in a gaseous state.

The ionisation enthalpy decreases down the group because the atomic size increases down the group and effective nuclear charge decreases. Hence removal of electrons become easier.
