Question

How electron affinity changes in the periodic table.​

Answer 1

$\huge{ \boxed{\bf\red{{ANSWER }}}}$

As we move from left to right of credit tables size decreases does nuclear charge increases and hence electron affinity increases .

As we move down the group, due to increase in number of shells screening effect increases and hence electron affinity decreases.

Answer 2

Answer:

Electron affinity generally increases across a period in the periodic table and sometimes decreases down a group. ... The chemical rationale for changes in electron affinity across the periodic table is the increased effective nuclear charge across a period and up a group.
