Question
Chapter 1, Problem 3PP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation:
Using the periodic table, the element with higher electronegativity is to be identified from each of the given pair of elements.
Concept introduction:
The ability of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons toward itself in a covalent bond is termed as electronegativity.
There will be an increase in electronegativity on moving from the left of the periodic table to the right.
There will be a decrease in electronegativity on moving from the top of the periodic table to the bottom.
