Chapter 8, Problem 8.76QE

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether Br or Te has more favorable electron affinity has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

The change in energy when an electron is added to the neutral gaseous atom is known as electron affinity. An anion is formed in this process.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether O or B has more favorable electron affinity has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

Interpretation:

Whether In or Se has more favorable electron affinity has to be determined.

Concept Introduction:

Refer to part (a).

Students have asked these similar questions
Valence electrons in an atom of phosphorus are closer to the nucleus than the valence electrons ofaluminum because: (A) P has a greater effective nuclear charge and a greater shielding than Al.(B) P has a greater effective nuclear charge with the same shielding as Al.(C) P has the same effective nuclear charge with greater shielding than Al.(D) P has the same effective nuclear charge and the same shielding as Al.
Choose the option in each that has the desired characteristic. Briefly explain each of your choices. (a) Larger Size? Si or Cl (b) Lower IE1? P or Po (c) Better Electron Affinity? O or F (d) Smaller Size? Br or Te2-
b. (i) Define Electron Affinity and explain why the electron affinity may either havepositive or negative values. [
