Electronegativity, symbol χ, measures the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons. An atom's electronegativity is affected by both its atomic number and the distance at which its valence electrons reside from the charged nucleus.

Electronegativity is the property of an atom which increases with its tendency to attract the electrons of a bond. If two bonded atoms have the same electronegativity values as each other, they share electrons equally in a covalent bond
