How to find the elemtent with the electron affinity values?
Answers
Answer:
Its simple just follow the given steps and you will rock ;)
Explanation:
so lets start with the meaning of electron affinity it simply means the love for electron
electron affinity is like how much someone (element) need a electron let's take some elements like fluorine (F) , Chlorine (Cl) , Bromine (Br) and Iodine (I).
The steps are as follows.
let us assume a situation that there were two friends Cl and fluorine you are chlorine and i am fluorine we both need one electron ( a friend) to complete our life i.e octate.
So what do you think what will be the basic requirements to call someone at your place
1- You must have a guest room
2- There should be no grudges between you and your friend
lets see friend will go with you or with me
I am fluorine i don't have a vacant room left for my friend i.e F don't have a vacant orbital. While you (Cl) have a vacant orbital so definately electron ( friend will go with you i.e Cl wins)
Now fluorine have already many electrons and also have a small size so there will be repulsion hence making it unstable so electron will not go with Fluorine.
So electron affinity depends on vaccant orbitats,no replusion and elctro negativity.
Finally your order will be
Cl>F>Br>I
I hope you get your answer with zero efforts that was my attempt.
