1.

The electron gain enthalpies of halogens are as given below: `F =- 332, CI =- 349, Br =- 324, I =- 295 kJ mol^(-1)`. The less negative value for F as compared to that of CI is due to:A. string electron-electron repulsions in the compact 2-p sub shell of FB. strong electro-electron repulsion in the bigger 3-p sub shell of CIC. higher electronegativity value of CID. higher effective nuclear charge of F
