Concept explainers
(a)
Interpretation:
The given following atoms increasing order of electronegativity has to be arranged.
Concept introduction:
Electronegativity increases in a period from left to right due to atomic size decreases and nuclear charge increases from going left to right in a period.
Electronegativity means the bonded electron between two atom, to attracts a shared pair of electrons towards itself is called Electronegativity
Electronegativity of a series of
Electronegativity decreases down the group because the atomic size increases.
(b)
Interpretation:
The given following atoms increasing order of electronegativity has to be arranged.
Concept introduction:
Electronegativity increases in a period from left to right due to atomic size decreases and nuclear charge increases from going left to right in a period.
Electronegativity means the bonded electron between two atom, to attracts a shared pair of electrons towards itself is called Electronegativity
