Question

Which group on the periodic table would have zero electronegativity because they have a full octet?

Answer 1

The answer is Noble gas because they have a full octet

Answer 2

Answer:

The correct answer is the option: inert or noble gases.

Explanation:

Hello!

Let's solve this!

Let's analyze each of the options:

-inert or noble gases: they have the complete octet, so they have zero electronegativity.

-alkaline earth metals: they don't have the full octet and tend to give up electrons.

-alkali metals: they don't have the complete octet and tend to give up electrons.

-halogens: they don't have the complete octet and tend to accept electrons.

After the analysis we conclude that the correct answer is the option: inert or noble gases.
