The electro negativity of carbon (C), nitrogen (N), and oxygen (O) elements obtained from figure 3-4 is:
- Carbon: 2.5
- Oxygen: 3.5
- Nitrogen: 3.0
Thus, the increasing order of electro negativity is C < N < O.
Repeat exercise 31 (a):
In a periodic table nuclear attraction on incoming electrons increases along the period because the atomic radii decreases from left to right. As a result electro negativity increases along the period from left to right.
The atomic radii increase down the group because nuclear attraction decreases. As a result electro negativity decreases down the group.
