Text Solution

AI Generated Solution

To determine which element, nitrogen (N) or oxygen (O), has a higher electron gain enthalpy, we can follow these steps: ### Step-by-Step Solution: 1. **Definition of Electron Gain Enthalpy**: - Electron gain enthalpy is the amount of energy released when an electron is added to a neutral gaseous atom. A more negative value indicates a greater tendency to gain an electron. 2. **Identify the Atomic Numbers**: ...
