What is electronegativity?

Back

Electronegativity is a measure of how well an atom can attract and hold onto electrons.

Front

Which group of elements has zero electronegativity?

Back

Noble gases.

Front

What trend is observed in electronegativity across a period in the periodic table?

Back

Electronegativity increases from left to right across a period.

Front

What trend is observed in electronegativity down a group in the periodic table?

Back

Electronegativity decreases as you move down a group.

Front

Which element has the highest electronegativity?

Back

Fluorine (F) is the most electronegative element.

Front

What is the electronegativity of noble gases?

Back

Noble gases have an electronegativity of zero.

Front

How does electronegativity affect bond polarity?

Back

The difference in electronegativity between two atoms determines the polarity of the bond they form.

Front

What is the electronegativity trend for alkali metals?

Back

Alkali metals have low electronegativity, which decreases down the group.

Front

Which element in Period 3 has the lowest electronegativity?

Back

Argon (Ar) has the lowest electronegativity in Period 3.

Front

True or False: Elements closer to noble gases have a stronger attraction for electrons.

Back

True.
