Question

Consider four atoms from the second period: lithium, beryllium, boron, carbon, and nitrogen. Which of these emblems has the lowest electronegativity value?

•Lithium
•Beryllium
•Boron
•Carbon
•Nitrogen

Answer 1

If you go to the right along the periodic table, electronegativity increases.
So the larger the column number, the greater the electronegativity.

-Lithium has lowest as it is in the 1st column



-Beryllium (2nd column)
-Boron s (13th column)
-Nitrogen (15th column)
