Questions & Step-by-Step Solutions

Which element has the highest electronegativity?
  • Step 1: Understand what electronegativity means. It is a measure of how strongly an atom attracts electrons in a chemical bond.
  • Step 2: Learn about the Pauling scale, which is a common scale used to measure electronegativity.
  • Step 3: Identify the elements on the periodic table. Electronegativity values vary among different elements.
  • Step 4: Look for the element with the highest electronegativity value on the Pauling scale.
  • Step 5: Find that fluorine (F) has the highest electronegativity value of 3.98.
