Answer

We will start with highest electronegativity element and end with low.

1. Fluorine (F) - 3.98

2. Oxygen (0) - 3.44

3. Nitrogen (N) - 3.04

4. Carbon (C) - 2.55

5. Boron (B) - 2.04

6. Sodium (Na) - 0.93

Step-by-step explanation

Moving from left to right of the periodic table, electronegativities increases whereas when moving from top to bottom, the electronegativity decreases.
