∙ 12y agoelectron affinity is the negative of electron gain enthalpy.
for example, the electron gain enthalpy of fluorine is -328, and electron affinity is 328 which is -(-328)

The difference between emulsoid and suspension in terms of affinity for solvent is that suspensoids have no affinity for the solvent. They are ready to fall out as soon as a charge is dispensed into the medium.
Enthalpy is the energy absorbed or lost from a reaction, but enthalpy change per mole is the amount of energy lost per mole, so in order to get the overall enthalpy from the change per mole, you must multiply that value by the amount of moles used in the reaction.
AnswerElectron affinity is the energy released when we add an electron to the outermost orbit of the atom. Halogens are the higher in electron affinity, and chlorine has the higher electron affinity than rest of the halogens. The irregularity in the electron affinity trend between Cl and F is due to the small size of the F atom. Although F definitely has a higher attraction for an electron than Cl (as evidenced by its high electro negativity value), the small size of the F atom means that adding an electron creates significant repulsion. Since electron affinity is an energy measurement, the total energy associated with electron affinity winds up being the energy that is released by the electron binding to the nucleus, minus the energy involved in overcoming the electrical repulsion in the outer shell.This makes the fluoride anion so formed unstable due to a very high charge/mass ratio. Also, fluorine has no d electrons which limits its atomic size. As a result, fluorine has an electron affinity less than that of chlorine.
Generally electron affinity goes up as you go from left to right across the periodic table, and decreases as you go down a column. However, fluorine is an exception -- and the element with the highest electron affinity is chlorine.(Note that the most electronegative element is fluorine however; 'electronegativity' is not exactly the same as 'electron affinity'.)Electronegativity is the ability of an atom in a molecule to draw bonding electrons to itselfElectron affinity is a measure of the energy change when an electron is added to a neutral atom to form a negative ion.The reason that the electron affinity is not as high as might otherwise be predicted for fluorine, is that it is an extremely small atom, and so it's electron density is very high. Adding an additional electron is therefore not quite as favorable as for an element like chlorine where the electron density is slightly lower (due to electron-electron repulsion between the added electron and the other electrons in the electron cloud).
hadan says fu ont now please contactv on this no 0971507995091
ok, so electron affinity is the amount of energy given off when a particular atom excepts electrons. Essentially, it is the likelihood that an atom will accept an electron, while ionization energy is how much energy is needed to take an electron off of a particular atom
This element is fluorine.
The relation between electron affinity and atomic radius is inversely proportional.

According to Zumdahl, Group 7A elements (halogens) follow the expected behavior or periodicity as you follow top to bottom. The numbers (top to bottom) are getting closer to 0, so they are decreasing in electron affinity. Bromine has a higher negative # therefore it is a higher electron affinity.---papajohn

Even though Fluorine has the highest electronegativity among all the elements and it should have the highest electron gain enthalpy among all the halogens but this is an exception and chlorine has higher electron gain enthalpy than Fluorine. The reason for this is that the size of Fluorine atom is very small and hence there is very high inter-electronic repulsion among the electrons of fluorine. This makes incoming of another electron not very favourable. Even though fluorine has large negative electron gain enthalpy but for chlorine its even more negative.
This element is rubidium.
