<span>aluminum, sulfur, oxygen, neon 

sulfur: 2.58 
oxygen: 3.44 
neon: 4.78 
aluminum 1.61 

Generally, electronegativity rises as you move left and up on the periodic table, with neon having the high</span>

Which of the following will stay constant, no matter if the substance is in the solid, liquid, or gas state?
34kurt
The mass of any substance will remain the same regardless of its state of matter. Using water as an example, its volume increases when it is boiled to a gas or when it is frozen from a liquid state to the solid state ice. The volume and temperature will change as it moves through the states of matter, however the amount of individual molecules of oxygen and hydrogen that form water will remain the same and this constitute mass.

How is electronegativity used in determining the ionic or covalent character of the bonding between two elements?
madam [21]

Answer:

If the electronegativity difference between bonded atoms are too much high ionic bonds are formed if the electronegativity diference is 0.4 or less than 0.4 non polar covalnet bond formed the difference greater than 0.4 polar covalent bond formed.

Explanation:

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.  

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

Covalent bond:

It is formed by the sharing of electron pair between bonded atoms.  

The atom with larger electronegativity attract the electron pair more towards it self and becomes partial negative while the other atom becomes partial positive.

For example:

In water the electronegativity of oxygen is 3.44 and hydrogen is 2.2. That's why electron pair attracted more towards oxygen, thus oxygen becomes partial negative and hydrogen becomes partial positive.
