Answer:
Nitrogen and Phosphorus are the elements of same group i.e group 15. ... The non- metallic character of any element is characterized by its tendency to lose electron i.e electronegativity. Hence, electronegativity decreases on going from top to bottom in a group. Therefore, Nitrogen is more electronegative than Phosphorus.
