Electron gain enthalpy has the same value as the electron affinity, yet it has the opposite sign. Both values show the energy required to add one electron to neutral atom creating negative ion. If electron electronic affinity is positive, the electron gain enthalpy is negative. Negative value of the electron gain enthalpy means that neutral atom has a positive tendency to accept an electron. Contrary, positive value of the electron gain enthalpy means that neutral atom has negative tendency to accept an electron.

why the electron affinity of phosphorus has negative sign with it....which factor is implement on it? and why the electron affinity of nitrogen is indicated by positive sign?

Electron configurations with completely full shells and half-full shellsexhibit an increased stability over other electron configurations. Therefore, nitrogen (1s22s22p3), which already has a half full 2p shell, will not want...

First electron affinity of sulphur is - 200 kJ mol -1 but second electron affinity is +565 kJ mol -1. Explain.

Energy is released as an atom becomes more stable. Atoms are most stable, when the outer shell of electrons is full. For atoms of elements beyond Helium, this means 2...

High electron affinity means that the electron affinity is?

That means that a big amount of energy is released when an electron is added to a neutral atom to form a negative ion
