<span>An element belonging to the halogen family would be expected to have a large ionization energy and a large electron affinity.
Flourine, Chlorine, Bromine, Iodine and astatine are the elements that belongs to the halogen family and mostly they have high values of ionization energy.
The amount of energy released when an electron is added to an atom or molecule to form a negative ion or anion is electron affinity.</span>Chlorine from this family has highest electron affinity.
Is there suppose to be a picture? Cause I do t see one
Answer:
This is because, within a period or family of elements, all electrons are added to the same shell.
