Why chlorine has high electroaffinity than flourine​

Chemistry
1 answer:
Aleksandr-060686 [28]2 years ago
7 0

Answer:

Fluorine has seven electrons in 2p-subshell whereas chlorine has seven electrons in its 3p-subshell. 3p-subshell is relatively larger than 2p-subshell. Therefore, repulsion among the electrons will be more in the 2p-shell of fluorine than 3p-subshell in chlorine.  Due to the smaller size and thus, the greater electron-electron repulsions, fluorine will not accept an incoming electron with the same as chlorine.
