Statement I : Fluorine atom has lesser magnitude of electron gain enthalpy than chlorine atom
Statement II : Additional electrons are repelled more strongly by 3p electrons in ‘Cl’ atom than by 2p electrons in ‘F’ atom

Additional electron are repelled more strongly by 2p electrons in 'F' atom than by '3p' electrons in 'Cl' atom;

Due to small size of fluorine and inter electronic repulsions, fluorine repels the incoming electron;

Its EGE is lesser than that of chlorine;
