Which halogen has the highest value of negative electron gain enthalpy?
- A Fluorine
- B Chlorine
- C Bromine
- D Iodine
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) Chlorine
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
The added electron goes to the bigger is i.e., occupies larger region to space and the electron-electron repulsion is much less.
So, Chlorine has the highest value of negative electron gain enthalpy
So, Chlorine has the highest value of negative electron gain enthalpy
