Among alkali metals which element do you expect to least electronegative and why

Answers

Answered by Sreesudha

Answer:

Caesium

Explanation:

Electronegativity means the possibility of gaining electrons. Alkali metals do not have electronegativity, but if it gets energy we can add electrons. I think Caesium is correct because of its large size than others.In case of Francium it is a radioactive element.

Explanation:

On moving down the group, electronegativity decreases because atomic size increases. Fr has the largest size, therefore it is least electronegative.
