Question

how is electronegative is linked with atomic size​

Answer 1

Explanation:

electronegativity increases as the atomic size decreases because as the no. of electrons increase the nuclear charge also increases and hence the electron gaining capacity increases.

Answer 2

Answer:

when electrons increases (electronegativity also increases )then its obvious that the atomic size would decrease because of the increase in effective nuclear charge that is the tendency of nucleuos to attract electrons of the shells that would lead to decrease in atomic size. so the electron gaining capacity will increase.
