Detailed explanation-1: -From all this, we conclude that Nitrogen is more electronegative than carbon.
Detailed explanation-2: -From all this, we conclude that Nitrogen is more electronegative than carbon.
Detailed explanation-3: -Ongoing left to right in a period, the atomic radius decreases as the attraction between the nucleus and the valence(or outer)electrons increases. So, the electronegativity also increases. So, the electronegativity of Nitrogen is more as compared to carbon.
Detailed explanation-4: -The more protons an atom has, the stronger the attraction is on the electrons (which increases the electronegativity). Therefore as oxygen and carbon are in the same period, oxygen will have a higher electronegativity because it has more protons.
Detailed explanation-5: -carbon (1) is more electronegative.
