Question

Arrange S comma O and S e in ascending order of electron affinity

  1. (a) Se < S < O  
  2. Se < O < S  
  3. (c) S < O < Se  
  4. S < Se < O  

The correct answer is: (a) Se < S < O


    Correct order of electron affinity is Se < S < O. In a group electron affinity decreases with increase in atomic number.
