Increasing order of electron affinity is

Which of the following has the maximum electron gain enthalpy?

In which of the following processes is energy absorbed?

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,

The electron affinity values for the halogens show the following trend:

The process requiring absorption of energy is
