Question

Which element would you expect to have a higher electronegativity than nitrogen (N)?

fluorine (F)

cesium (Cs)

boron (B)

phosphorous (P)

Answer 1

The first option, Fluorine (F). The is the correct asnswer that has been verified.

Answer 2

Answer: Option (a) is the correct answer.

Step-by-step explanation:

When we move from left to right in a periodic table then electronegativity of atoms increases.

Nitrogen and fluorine are present in the same period. Nitrogen belongs to group 7 whereas fluorine belongs to group 9.

Thus, out of the given options electronegativity of fluorine is more as compared to nitrogen.
