Answer the following questions based on the above graph(Electron affinity vs Atomic no.) i)Why on moving from Li to Be, the value of electron gain enthalpy drops.
ii)Cl has a higher peak than fluorine. Explain.
iii)Why Fluorine has the highest value among its period members.

i) Be has a fully filled 2s level.

ii) This is because chlorine is larger than fluorine.

iii) Fluorine needs only one electron to attain the octet configuration.

Electron affinity is the ability of an electron to accept  gaseous electrons to yield gaseous ions with a negative charge.  

Electron affinity depends on the size of an atom. Larger atoms have a higher electron affinity because they are better able to accept electrons.

The drop between Li and Be is because the 2s orbital in Be is already fully filled while Li has incompletely filled 2s level. electrons do not easily go into the higher energy 2p level.

The higher peak of chlorine is because chlorine is larger than fluorine hence the electron affinity of fluorine is less than that of chlorine. The smaller the ion the lesser the electron affinity.

Fluorine has the highest electron affinity in period 2 because it needs only one electron to attain the octet structure.

more info ? ? i don't understand what the question is

explanation:

it can be observed without changing the identity of the object.

it depends on what substance you're talking about as well as many other factors. in quantum mechanics, the observation of particles affects the observers ability to measure certain properties. for example: you can know the velocity of a particle, but you can't know it's position; or you can know it's position, but not it's velocity. it's like trying to find out where a grain of sand is by throwing other grains of sand at it. once you find out where it is, it's been moved. it's also like trying to find an answer to the question of whether or not a tree falling in a forest makes a sound if nobody is there to hear it. paradoxically, the only way to find out is to be there and hear it.
