  • Electron gain enthalpy(H =-ve)
  • Higher Electron gain enthalpy means greater energy is released when electron is added to gaseous isolated atom consider only magnitude but not the sign.
  • Electron gain enthalpy of Oxygen is abnormally low  due to the repulsions between added electrons and lone pairs present on it.
  •  Energy released is very low
