Ionization equilibrium for the most astrophysically abundant elements are calculated using multilevel atomic models for several stages of ionization. It is found that the relative abundance of the lithium-, beryllium-, and boron-like ions at electron densities as low as 1 million per cu cm is density-dependent. Because of this dependence, the intensity of lines arising from ions of the Li, Be, and B isoelectronic sequences are density-sensitive. The general implications of these results as applied to solar and stellar atmospheric models, coronal abundances, and spectroscopic diagnostic techniques are discussed.
