2022: ☢️ Electron Affinity of Selenium (Se) [& Color, Uses, Discovery ...

In chemistry, the electron affinity of an atom of Selenium is defined as the amount of energy released or spent when an electron is added to a neutral atom in the gaseous state to form a negative ion. But what is the electron affinity of an atom of Se?

In the case of Selenium the electron affinity is 195 kilojoules per mole.  There are a lot of cool facts about Selenium that most people don't know. Check this...

Selenium Facts

Selenium Electron Affinity

195 kilojoules per mole

State at 20 °C

Solid

Discovery

Discovered By: Jöns Berzelius

Uses

Light causes it to conduct electricity more easily. It is used in photoelectric cells, TV cameras, xerography machines and as a semiconductor in solar batteries and rectifiers. Also colors glass red.

Sources

Obtained from lead, copper and nickel refining. Conducts electricity when struck by light.

Description

Soft metalloid similar to sulfur. Ranges from gray metallic to red glassy appearance.

Citation

When you need to include a fact or piece of information in an assignment or essay you should also include where and how you found that piece of information.

That gives credibility to your paper and it is sometimes required in higher education.

To make your life (and citation) easier just copy & paste the information below into your assignment or essay:

Luz, Gelson. "Electron Affinity of Selenium (Se) [& Color, Uses, Discovery ..." Materials. Gelsonluz.com. dd mmmm. yyyy. <URL>

Now replace dd, mmmm and yyyy with the day, month, and year you browsed this page. Also replace URL for the actual url of this page (The < and > stay, ok?). This citation format is based on MLA.
