Statement-1: Among the halogens, chlorine has both the most negative electron gain enthalpy and most positive ionization enthalpy

Statement-2: Among Nitrogen Family, N has least size as well as least Electron Affinity

Options:

Answer:
D
Solution:

Statement-1 is false. Fluorine has the most positive ionization enthalpy among halogens. Chlorine has the most negative electron gain enthalpy. Statement-2 is true. Nitrogen has the least size and least electron affinity (positive electron gain enthalpy hence negative electron affinity)
