Few reactions are given below-
A
is more -ve than 
and 
B
is less negative than 
C
and 
are -ve whereas 
is 
D
Which of the following statement(s) is/are correct with respect to the reactions mentioned above? All are correct
Text Solution
Verified by ExpertsThe correct answer is:
For option , 
has most negative electron gain enthalpy.
For option . 
has greater negative electron gain enthalpy than 
.
For option , adding 
in 
will certainly require energy, as there will be electronic repulsions between the already existing '-ve' charge and incoming electron. So electron gain enthalpy is +ve.
