The electronegativity of the given elements increases in the order

  1. A C, N, S i, P
  2. B N, S i, C, P
  3. C  Si,P,C,N
  4. D P, S i, N, C
Verified Solution

Answer & Solution

Correct Answer

(C)  Si,P,C,N

Step-by-step Solution

Detailed explanation

Since electronegativities increase in a period from left to right, therefore, electronegativity of N is more than that C and electronegativity of P is more than that of Si. Further since electronegativities decrease down a group in the periodic table, therefore,…
