their periodic trends
with reason for
Ionization energy.
Electron affinity and
effective nuclear
charge
Q4(A)
NO​

Answer 1

Answer:

The general trend in the electron affinity for atoms is almost the same as the trend for ionization energy. This is because both electron affinity and ionization energy are highly related to atomic size. Large atoms have low ionization energy and low electron affinity. Therefore, they tend to lose electrons
