Electronegativity shares the same trend as lonization Energy for the same reasons. Which statement best explains why fluorine has the highest
electronegativity (i. e., attracts shared electrons strongly)? *
a) The valence electrons are relatively close to the nucleus.
b) Fluorine has little attraction for its valence electrons and shares them easily.
c) The noble gases do not tend to bond with other elements so it is difficult to measure
their electronegativity values.
d) Fluorine has the smallest atomic radius out of all known elements.
