    The electron affinity values (in \[\text{kJ}\,\text{mo}{{\text{l}}^{-1}}\]) of three halogens X, Y and Z are respectively \[-\text{ }349,\text{ }-333\] and \[-325.\] Then X, Y and Z respectively are:

    A)  \[{{F}_{2}},C{{l}_{2}}\]and \[B{{r}_{2}}\]              

    B)  \[C{{l}_{2}},{{F}_{2}}\]and \[B{{r}_{2}}\]

    C)  \[C{{l}_{2}},B{{r}_{2}}\]and \[{{F}_{2}}\]              

    D)  \[B{{r}_{2}},C{{l}_{2}}\]and \[{{F}_{2}}\]

    Correct Answer: B

    Solution :

                     The electron affinity (in kJ/mol) of Fluorine = 332.6 Chlorine =348.5 Bromine =324.7 Iodine =295.5 Chlorine has highest electron affinity value then fluorine then bromine then iodine .X. So, according to question the correct order of electron affinity will be: \[\text{C}{{\text{l}}_{\text{2}}}\,\text{}\,{{\text{F}}_{\text{2}}}\,\text{ B}{{\text{r}}_{\text{2}}}\]
