प्रश्न
Explain the following:
Halogens have a high electron affinity.
उत्तर
The atomic size of halogens is very small. The smaller the atomic size, the greater the electron affinity, because the effective attractive force between the nucleus and the valence electrons is greater in smaller atoms, and so the electrons are held firmly.
