The electron affinity of fluorine is less than chlorine. Why?
Why is the Electron Affinity of fluorine less than that of Chlorine, whilst Flourine is the most electronegative element?
What is electron affinity in detail? What is electron affinity? Why hydrogen form only one hydrogen bonding with fluorine? How is the formula for electron affinity determined? Why is the second electron affinity value of oxygen positive? How is the electron affinity equation determined? Why the atoms become neutral when it shares electron ? Why is the dissociation energy of a Florine (F2) molecule lower compared to other halo (chlorine, bromine and iodine) molecules? Why does more valence electrons mean more electronegativity? What type of bond is formed between chlorine and hydrogen? How electronegativity affect interactions between water molecules? In which compounds does chlorine form a hydrogen bond? The electronegativity difference between two elements A and B is 0.5. What is the magnitude of percent  in the ionic character in a single A-B bond? What are the differences between ionic, covalent, and hydrogen bonds? What is the electron configuration of iron? What is the electron configuration of oxygen? Why atoms becomes neutral when it shares electrons? Is the electron charge (e) a fundamental constant? How is it derived? What is dual nature of electron? Are all electrons the same electron? What is the Lewis dot structure for fluorine? Does the electron have a dual nature? Difference between electron affinity and electron gain enthalpy? Science: Why can't hydrogen atoms form an ionic bond? Why does hydrogen fluoride have a higher boiling point than hydrogen chloride? What is the difference between hydrogen bonds and dipole-dipole interactions? What factors affect the acidity of a proton or the basicity of the electron pair in conjugate acid and base? How is the formula for chlorine heptoxide determined? Why does silicon form a stronger bond with fluorine than it does with oxygen? Where does the energy that is released from an electron affinity come from?
