The correct order of electron affinity of B, C, N, O is

A

`O gt C gt N gt B`

B

`B gt N gt C gt O`

C

`O gt C gt B gt N`

D

`O gt B gt C gt N`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C

`underset(140.9)Ogtunderset(122.3)Cgtunderset(83)Bgtunderset(0)N` Values of electron affinity increases on going from left to right in periods but the value of electron affinity of `V^(th)` A elements is less than that of `IV^(th)` A element, this is due to half filled p-orbital present.
