The electronegativity of the following elements increases in the order

A

C,N,Si,P

B

N,Si,C,P

C

Si,P,C,N

D

P,Si,N,C

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
N is smaller in size, therefore most electronegative. Si is largest in size, therefore less electronegativity than phosphorous. P is less electronegative than carbon due to bigger size.

Metals have few electrons in their valence shell while non-metals generally have more electrons in their valence shell. Metallic character is closely related to atomic radius and ionisation enthalpy. Metallic character increases from top to bottom in a group and decreases from let to right in a period of periodic table. metallic character is inversely related to electronegativity of element. Q.
