Question

The elements found in Group 2A, from top to bottom, include beryllium, magnesium, calcium, strontium, and barium. Which of these elements has the highest electronegativity value?

Answer 1

electronegativity is the property of the element to attract electrons to its nucleus. The trend of electronegativity in the periodic table is decreasing from right to left and decreasing from top to bottom. hence from the given elements, the element with the highest electronegativity should be A.beryllium
