Question

Please help me. Write general outer electron configurations (ns^xnp^y) for group 6A in the periodic table. Write general outer electron configurations (ns^x np^y)for group 7A in the periodic table. The electron affinity of each group 7A element is morenegative than that of each corresponding group 6A element. Use theelectron configurations to explain why this is so. Please help me.

Explanation / Answer

6A: ns2np4
7A: ns2np5
you have np4 four compared to np5. group 7a only needs 1more to reach noble gas configuration thus it wants it more thangroup 6a which needs to so it is moreelectronegative.
