Which consequence results when electron affinity increases significantly?

💡 Explanation

Increased electron affinity promotes electron-electron attraction and reduced repulsion on orbital overlap because the effective nuclear charge draws the electron density closer, therefore the atomic radius decreases rather than increasing nuclear repulsion or higher orbital energy.
