Q2
Assertion :Electron affinity of noble gas elements is zero. Reason: Electron affinity reflects the ability of an atom to accept an electron. It is the energy change that occurs when an electron is added to a gaseous atom. Atoms with stronger effective nuclear charge have greater electron affinity

Q3
The amount of energy released when an atom in the gaseous state accepts an electron to form an anion. factor which affect electron affinity are: atomic size and Nuclear charge. As atomic radii increases, electron affinity increase. As nuclear charge increase, electron affinity increase. it decrease down a group and increases across a period. Explain.
