Which of the following has highest electron affinity?

  • N

  • O

  • F

  • Cl


D.

Cl

The electron affinities of some of the elements of second period ( i.e. N, O, F, etc) are however, lower than the corresponding elements ( i.e P, S, Cl, etc) of the third period. This is due to the reason that the elements of second period have the smallest atomic sizes amongst  the elements in their respective groups. As a result, there are considerable electron-electron repulsion with the atom itself and hence, the additional electron is not accepted with the same case as compared to the remaining elements in the same group.
