Question

Define Electron Affinity.​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electron affinity is the energy change that results from adding an electron to a gaseous atom. For example, when a fluorine atom in the gaseous state gains an electron to form F⁻(g), the associated energy change is -328 kJ/mol.

QUESTION :- Define Electron Affinity.

ANSWER :-

Electron affinity is defined as the change in energy (in kJ/mole) of a neutral atom (in the gaseous phase) when an electron is added to the atom to form a negative ion. In other words, the neutral atom's likelihood of gaining an electron.

---> What is Electron?

☞ The electron is a subatomic particle, symbol e⁻ or β⁻ , whose electric charge is negative one elementary charge. ☞ Electrons belong to the first generation of the lepton particle family, and are generally thought to be elementary particles because they have no known components or substructure.
