Electron affinity is the measure of the attraction of an electron toward an isolated gaseous atom. When an electron is added to

an isolated gaseous atom or ion energy is either released or absorbed; this energy change is known as electron affinity. Electron affinity is positive when energy is absorbed, and it is negative when energy is released.True / False.

False

Explanation:

Electron affinity is negative when energy is absorbed and it is positive when energy is released.

Electron affinity is defined as the energy released in adding an electron to a neutral atom in the gas phase.

It is a measure of the readiness of an atom to gain an electron.

In a reaction where energy is released, electron affinity is usually positive. These reactions are called exothermic reactions.

Endothermic reactions in which energy is absorbed have negative electron affinity values.

Alla [95]

The question is incomplete, complete question is :

In an organic structure, you can classify each of the carbons as follows: Primary carbon (1°) = carbon bonded to just 1 other carbon group Secondary carbon (2°) = carbon bonded to 2 other carbon groups Tertiary carbon (3°) = carbon bonded to 3 other carbon groups Quaternary carbon (4°) = carbon bonded to 4 other carbon groups How many carbons of each classification are in the structure below? How many total carbons are in the structure? How many primary carbons are in the structure? How many secondary carbons are in the structure? How many tertiary carbons are in the structure? How many quaternary carbons are in the structure?

Structure is given in an image?

Answer:

There are 10 carbon atoms in the given structures out of which 6 are 1° , 1 is 2° , 2 are 3° and 1 is 4°.

Explanation:

Total numbers of carbon = 10

Number of primary carbons that is carbon joined to just single carbon atom = 6

Number of secondary carbons that is carbon joined to two carbon atoms = 1

Number of tertiary carbons that is carbon joined to three carbon atoms = 2

Number of quartenary carbons that is carbon joined to four carbon atoms = 1

So, there are 10 carbon atoms in the given structures out of which 6 are 1° , 1 is 2° , 2 are 3° and 1 is 4°.
