Answers

Answered by Gauthamjeevan

2

Answer:

Because of electron-electron repulsions, this is energetically unfavorable, making the electron affinity more positive. Notice that the Period 3 elements actually have the greatest electron affinities, instead of the Period 2 elements as the trend suggests.
