    Electron gain enthalpy with/negative sign of fluorine is less than that of chlorine due to

    A)  high ionisation enthalpy of fluorine

    B)  smaller size of chlorine atom

    C)  smaller size of fluorine atom

    D)  bigger size of 2p orbital of fluorine

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

     Due to smaller size and high repulsive force within the outermost orbit of fluorine, its electron gain enthalpy is less negative.
