WHICH ELEMENT IS MORE REACTIVE BETWEEN FLUORINE AND CHLORINE

Fluorine atoms are smaller than chlorine atoms, thus it's possible for electrons to be closer to the nuclei of fluorine atoms and experience a stronger attractive force with the nuclei. This allows fluorine atoms to take electrons more easily than chlorine atoms, and so fluorine is more reactive than chlorine..

Hope this helped....

The electron affinity of fluorine is less than chlorine . But florine is more reactive than chlorine due to the following reason .

1) Low dissociation energy of F2 molecule , and high hydration energy of F−  ion.

2) The electronegativity of fluorine is more than that of chlorine .
