Question

Explain the trends in the following atomic properties of group 16 elements:

Electronegativity

Short/Brief Note
Advertisements

Solution

Electronegativity: When we proceed from top to bottom in a group, the nuclear attraction force reduces and the atomic radii increase, resulting in a drop in electronegativity.
