ELECTRONEGATIVITY

• Electronegativity is the ability of an atom to attract electrons in a covalent bond.
• Non-metals are more Electronegative.
• Most electronegative elements in the periodic table are :- Fluorine > Oxygen > Nitrogen ≥ Chlorine

ELECTROPOSITIVITY

• Electropositivity is the ability of an atom to withdraw a shared pair of electrons in its combined state.
• Metals are more Electropositive.
• Caesium is most electropositive metal.
