Answer:

Electronegativity generally increases from left to right across a period,

Explanation:

The true statement from the given choices is that electronegativity generally increases from left to right across a period.

Electronegativity is the measure of the relative tendency with which an atom of the element attract valence electrons in a chemical bond.

Across a period electronegativity increases from left to right and decreases down the group.

This is due to reduction in metallic properties as we move across the period from left to right.

2) Which liberates the most energy?
evablogger [386]

Answer: F(g)+e^-\rightarrow F^-(g)

Explanation:

Electron gain enthalpy is defined as energy released on addition of electron to an isolated gaseous atom.  

The amount of energy released will be maximum when the tendency to attract electrons is maximum. As flourine has atomic number of 9 and has electronic configuration of 2,7. It can readily gain 1 electron to attain stable noble gas configuration and hence liberates maximum energy.

F(g)+e^-\rightarrow F^-(g)
