The correct order of electronegativity of N, O, F and P is.

A

F gt N gt P gt O

B

F gt O gt P gt N

C

F gt O gt N gt P

D

N gt O gt F gt P

Text Solution

Verified by Experts

The correct Answer is:
C
In a period, electronegativity increases from left to right. Hence, N < O < F
In a group, electronegativity decreases down the group. Hence, N > P
