Chapter 8, Problem 15SAQ
Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

The option corresponding to the correct element for which gaining of an electron is most exothermic is to be identified.

Concept Introduction: The process of gaining an electron is exothermic in nature. Energy is released when the neutral atom in a gaseous state is converted to a negatively charged ion due to addition of an extra electron. Elements with completely filled or half-filled orbitals generally have higher electron affinity values.

To determine: The option corresponding to the correct element for which gaining of an electron is most exothermic.

Correct answer: The correct option is (c).
