Question
Which one of the following is incorrect?
Answer: Option A
:
A
Elements with high electronegativity usually have high electron gain enthalpies, but this does not happen all the time.
If you take the example of nitrogen, it's electronegativity is one of the highest.
But if you look at its electron gain enthalpy, you actually need to supply energy to add the electron because nitrogen has a half-filled configuration which is stable.
