It increases across a period and decreases down a group. A good way to remember this is that fluorine is the most electronegative atom, and it's to the top right of the table.

Answer : The correct option is, It increases across a period and decreases down a group.

Explanation :

Electronegativity : It is defined as the tendency of an atom or an element in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.

That means, the higher the electronegativity of atom the higher will be its ability to attract shared electrons.

Electronegativity of the elements increase across a period and decreases down a group.

As moving from left to right in a period or across a period, the electrons are added to the same shell and the nuclear charge increases that means the outer shell electrons become close to the nucleus and thus, ability of elements to attract shared pair of electrons itself increases.

As moving from top to bottom in a group or down a group, the electrons are added to the new shell that means the outer shell electrons become far to the nucleus and thus, ability of elements to attract shared pair of electrons itself decreases.

Hence, the correct option is, It increases across a period and decreases down a group.

Calculate the density of a solid in g/cm3 if it weighs 38.3 kg and has a volume of 0.00463 m3.
RideAnS [48]

Answer: D=8.27 g/cm³

Explanation:

Density is mass/volume. Mass is in grams and volume is in liters. In this case, the problem wants our volume to be in cm³. All we need to do is to make some conversions to convert kg/m³ to g/cm³.

D=\frac{38.3kg}{0.00463m^3} *\frac{(1m)^3}{(100cm)^3} *\frac{1000g}{1kg}

With this equation, the m³ and kg cancel out, and we are left with g/cm³.

D=8.27 g/cm³
