1.	How much energy, in kJ, will be produced when 7.1g of chlorine atoms are converted to ions in gaseous state? [Given : Electron affinity of chlorine = – 3.7 ev; 1 ev = 96.49 kJ/mole]
Answer» n affinity MEANS ENERGY released by gas during it changes to ION STATE from gas state. Here, chlorine releases 3.7eV energy when it transforms from chlorine gas to chlorine ion. For 1 mole chlorine, the released energy is 3.7eV = 357.013 kJ/mole Now, 1 mole Chlorine = 35.5 gm. 35.5 gm chlorine when changes completely into ion releases 357.013 kJ energy 7.1 gm chlorine when changes completely into ion releases
