Among halogens, the correct order of amount of energy released in electron gain (electron gain enthalpy) is
(a) F > Cl > Br > I
(b) F < Cl < Br < I
(c) F < Cl > Br > I
(d) F < Cl < Br > I
Answer is C as due to interelectronic repusion and small size F has less negative electron gain enthalpy than Cl

Explain why HC1 is a gas and HF is a liquid.
Fluorine is most electronegative due to this HF is more polar than HCl. Therefore HF is associated with intermolecular H Bonding and liquid at room temperature.

How would you explain the lower atomic radius of Ga as compared to Al?
Ga is present in 3rd period after the d-block in the periodic table, In this due to poor shielding effect of d electron effective nuclear charge increases that pull outershell electron more strongly hence has smaller size.
