Electronegativity
Define Electronegativity:
Electronegativity is teh measuremnet of how readily an atom forms a chemical bond. Electronegativity increase
moving to the left to right across a period and decrease moving down a group.
Explanation:
Ectronegativity describes the frequency of an atom to attract
electrons towards it. An atom's electronegativity is affected by
atomic number and the distance at which its valence electrons are postion from the nuclues.
IT is the amount of force it has to take it from another.
Were going tohave to look at charge and energy levels
YOu have to have enough energy level to take it away so it need to be closer.
The charge has to take it away from the nuclues increases in charge so does the electro negativity.
The arrow goes up because it is easier to take something away you have one energy level.
