QUESTION:

Specify which of the following elements you would expect to have the greatest electron affinity and which would have the least:

He, K, Co, S, Cl.

ANSWER:

Step 1 of 3

Here, we find  the least electron affinity element .

The property in which ability to accept one or more electrons are called electron affinity.

And which is the negative of the energy change that occurs when an electron is accepted

by an atom in the gaseous state to form an anion.

 

.The usual trend of increased electron affinity as we move along a period from left to right.

The greater the stability obtained by the atom in accepting an electron , the greater the values of stability.
