Assertion $(A)$: Fluorine has a smaller negative electron gain enthalpy than chlorine.
Reason $(R)$: The electron-electron repulsion is higher in chlorine than in fluorine.

Among the following configurations,the element which has the highest electron affinity is

The formation of the oxide ion,$O^{2-}_{(g)}$,from oxygen atom requires first an exothermic and then an endothermic step as shown below:
$O_{(g)} + e^- \to O^{-}_{(g)} ; \Delta_f H^{\Theta} = -141 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
$O^{-}_{(g)} + e^- \to O^{2-}_{(g)} ; \Delta_f H^{\Theta} = +780 \ kJ \ mol^{-1}$
Thus,the process of formation of $O^{2-}$ in gas phase is unfavourable even though $O^{2-}$ is isoelectronic with neon. It is due to the fact that,
