What is the correct order of electronegativity?

A

`M^(1-) lt M^(2-) lt M^(3-) lt M^(4-)`

B

`M^(1-) gt M^(2-) gt M^(3-) gt M^(4-)`

C

`M^(1-) gt M^(2-) lt M^(3-) gt M^(4-)`

D

`M^(4-) lt M^(2-) lt M^(3-) lt M^(1-)`

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
B
Higher the positive charge greater is th `EN` and higher the negative charge the lesser is the `EN`. So, `EN` order is
`M^(-1) gt M^(2-) gt M^(3-) gt M^(4-)`
