Answer» option B , is incorrect. Fluorine, though higherthan chlorinein the periodic table, has a very small atomic size. This makes the fluoride anion so formed unstable (highly reactive) due to a very high charge/mass ratio. ... As a result,fluorinehas anelectron affinity less thanthat ofchlorine. |
