Question

Electronegativity on what factors does it depend

Answer 1

Higher Ionisation energy and electron affinity lead to higher electronegativity. Number and nature of atoms

Answer 2

i) State of hybridisation
ii) Oxidation state of element
iii)Nature of substituents attached to the atom.
In the periodic table in which electronegativity is based on Pauling scale,
i) It increases on increasing nuclear charge.
ii) Decreases on increasing atomic size.
iii) Decreases on increasing screening effect.
