HERE'S THE ANSWER ✌
______________________
✔What is Electronegativity?✔
Electronegativity is a measure of how strongly atoms attract bonding electrons to themselves.
Its symbol is the Greek letter chi: χ
The higher the electronegativity, the greater an atom's attraction for electrons.
the elements in the periodic table, in general, electronegativity of elements increases from:
the bottom of a group to the top (although this does not apply to the transition metals) and
left to right across a period.
Periodic table of electronegativity: the lighter the shade of green, the higher the electronegativity. Grey means no value is known.
