Application +4 | -1
The formation of O2−(g){O}^{2-}(\mathrm{g}) starting from O(g){O}(\mathrm{g}) is endothermic by 603 kJ mol−1603 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}. If electron affinity of O(g){O}(\mathrm{g}) is −141 kJ mol−1-141 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}, the second electron affinity of oxygen would be:
View answer and explanation
Correct option: A
+744 kJ mol−1+744 \mathrm{~kJ} \mathrm{~mol}^{-1}
Option A (+744 kJ/mol) is correct because it correctly calculates the second electron affinity by considering the overall endothermic process and the first electron affinity.
