In comparison to group seventeen elements possess more electron gain enthalpy
- Due to their strong electron attraction and high electronegative state, halogens are more likely to receive electrons than lose them.
- They become more reactive and nonmetallic as a result. Halogens, or members of Group 17, have a strong attraction for electrons and frequently pick up an electron to form a stable anion.
- Further, halogens rapidly take electrons to create anions, giving them significant oxidising power as opposed to reducing power.
- This is due to the fact that they already have seven valence electrons and only need one more to form an octet and a stable electron configuration.
- The energy produced when an atom gets an electron is known as electron gain enthalpy, and as a result, halogens have a high value.
