LOTS OF POINTS FOR WHOEVER ANSWERS THIS

Place the elements Lithium (Li), Beryllium (Be), and Potassium (K) in order from lowest electronegativity energy to the highest. Explain with details and use the Coulomb's Law to back up your statement

You should probably rephrase this:

According to Coulomb's Law, as the number of protons in an atom increases (or atomic number), the nuclear energy of atoms will increase, pulling electrons closer.

I think the order would be Be, Li, K but feel free to check online before you submit any work with this.
