Electronegativity is the tendency of an element of a compound to attract the shared paired of electrons towards itself.
It increases accros the period.
It decreases down the group.

Electronegativity is a measure of how strongly atoms attract bonding electrons to themselves.
Electronegativity. Electronegativity increases as you move across the periodic table from left to right. This occurs due to a greater charge on the nucleus, causing the electron bonding pairs to be very attracted to atoms placed further right on the periodic table. Fluorine is the most electronegative element.
Electronegativity varies in a predictable way across the periodic table. Electronegativityincreases from bottom to top in groups, and increases from left to right across periods. Thus, fluorine is the most electronegative element, while francium is one of the least electronegative.
