Question

Pls explain how as though Cl- has higher electron affinity but F-
is more electronegativity and for dipole i think electronegativity
should be concerned

Dear Student
F is more electronegative though its electron affinity is less due
to electron electron repulsion as size of F is less so there is
electron electron repulsion But in case of Cl the size is some what
higher so there are no electron electron repulsion so their
electron affinity is more than that of F
