The correct order of electron gain enthalpies of Cl, , and Po is
  1. (A)
  2. (B)Po Te F Cl
  3. (C)
  4. (D)✓ Correct

Answer: (D)

Solution

Electron gain enthalpy (more negative = more favorable): Cl has the most negative value ( kJ/mol), followed by F (), Te (), and Po (). In order of increasing (less negative) electron gain enthalpy: Cl F Te Po.
