    The electron affinity values for the halogens show the following trend:

    A)  \[F<Cl>Br>I\]

    B)         \[F<Cl<Br<I\]

    C)  \[F>Cl>Br>I\]

    D)         \[F<Cl>Br<I\]

    E)  \[F>Cl<Br>I\]

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

    Electron affinity decreases with increase in atomic size. So, the correct order of electron affinity of halogens is \[F<Cl>Br>I\]
