arrange the following as stated 1)N,O,F,Cl (increasing order of electron gain enthalpy) 2) F,O,N,Cl (increasing order of electronnegativity) 3)P,N,S,O (increasing orer of ionizationenthalpy)
Open in App
Solution
1. Cl > F > O > N - (Electron gain enthalpy increases on moving across a period and decreases on moving down the group. But due to small size of fluorine it has lesser than chlorine)
2. F > O > N=Cl - (Electronegativity increases on moving across a period)
​3. O >N > P > S - ​(Ionisation energy increases on moving across a period and decreases on moving down the group)
