Fluorine is more electronegative than iodine atom, yet HF has lower acidic strength than HI.

Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine. Is the statement true ?

Account for the following observations (a) AlCl_(3) is a Lewis acid (b) Though fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine yet BF_(3) is a weaker Lewis acid than BCI_(3) (c) PbO_(2) is a stronger oxidising agent than SnO_(2) (d) The +1 oxidation state of thallium is more stable than its +3 state.

Chlorine has more electron affinity than fluorine.

Fluorine is more electronegative than chlorine but p-fluorobenzoic acid is a weaker acid than p-chlorobenzoic acid. Explain.

Write the correct form of the following statement: The fluorine atom is more electronegative than H atom, therefore, the H-F bond is formed by gain and loss of electrons.

Assertion: F is more electronegative than Cl . Reason: F has high electron affinity than Cl .

Chlorine is more reactive than _____ [fluorine/iodine]

Although fluorine is more electronegative than oxygen, but the ability of oxygen to stabilise higher oxidation states exceeds that of fluorine. Why?

Fluorine is more electronegative than either boron or phosphorous. What conclusion can be drawn from the fact that BF_(3) has no dipole moment but PF_(3) does

More acidic than ethanol is
