Question

fluorine has lower electron gain enthalpy than chlorine but is a stronger oxidising agent than chlorine.Why​

Answer 1

Answer:

bcz the fluorine bond dissociation energy has much than the chlorine so

..

Answer 2

THE ELECTRON GAINED enthalpy of chlorine is more negative than that of fluorine.however the bond dissociation energy if flourine is much lesser than that of chlorine

Thus ,flourine is much stronger oxidising agent than chlorine
