Select the more electronegative element in this pair. a. Cl F
b. O P
c. N C
d. Be Li

a. F

b. O

c. N

d. Be

Explanation:

Electronegative is a periodic table for the elements which is stated by the Pauling number. EN helps us to state the type of bond which it can be covalent or ionic.

Fluroine is the most electronegative number of the periodic table.

In option A, F (4) is more EN than Cl (3.2)

EN is decreased from right to left in the periodic table (if we see periods) and increases, from bottom to top if we look at the groups

In option B, O (3.4) is more EN than P (2.2)

In option C, N (3) is more EN than C (2.6)

In Option D, Be (1.5) is more EN than Li (1)
