Question

How does the electronic configuration of cations affinity the solubility

Answer 1

Electron affinity decreases or increases across a period depending on electronic configuration. This occurs because of the same subshell rule that governs ionization energies. Since a half-filled "p" subshell is more stable, carbon has a greater affinity for an electron than nitrogen.
