Question
Electronegativity is a measure of the capacity of an atom to
- (a) Attract electrons
- Attract protons
- (c) Repel electrons
- Repel protons
The correct answer is: Attract protons
Flourine although have highest electronegativity due to its very small size, effective inter electronic repulsions are observed which brings down its electron affinity.
