Question

Why the electronegativity increases across the period?

Answer 1

It is no wonder the electron pair gets dragged so far towards the chlorine that ions are formed. Electronegativity increases across a period because the number of charges on the nucleus increases. That attracts the bonding pair of electrons more strongly.

Answer 2

bcoz, as we move along the period the nuclear charge density increase , so the electrons are strongly bounded. ,so it is difficult to take a electron from it.
