Answer 1

p block are similar electronegative

Answer 2

The block in the periodic table in which the elements have similar electronegativity is p block.

• In the modern periodic table 7 periods and 18 groups are present which are divided in 4 blocks s, p, d and f.
• These blocks are divided because of their differences in properties of elemnts.
• S block contains metals, p blocks have metals, non metals and netalloids while d and f blocks are transition metals.
• Example - chlorine and nitrogen have electronegativity 3. carbon and iodine have 2.5. bromine and sulphur have 2.8.
