Electron Affinity Equations

Electron Affinity is the amount of energy RELEASED when you add an electron to a particle in the gas phase. So the general equation is:
A + electron = A(-) + energy  
But then you can add a second or third electron, which gives the "second electron affinity" and "third electron affinity".
