Detailed explanation-1: -Electronegativity is a measure of an atom’s ability to attract shared electrons to itself. On the periodic table, electronegativity generally increases as you move from left to right across a period and decreases as you move down a group.
Detailed explanation-2: -Electronegativity is the measure of the tendency of an atom to attract ta electrons of a bond pair. Suggest Corrections.
Detailed explanation-3: -Electronegativity refers to the ability of an atom to attract shared electrons in a covalent bond. The higher the value of the electronegativity, the more strongly that element attracts the shared electrons.
Detailed explanation-4: -Remember electronegativity – a ranking of an atom’s “greed” for electrons, in other words? In a bond, the more electronegative element will have a greater share of the electrons, and a partial negative charge to reflect this greater electron density.
