Question

Select the elements that are considered to have a relatively weak degree of electronegativity

Answer 1

carbon

hydrogen​

Explanation:

From the given choices, carbon and hydrogen are considered to have a relatively weak degree of electronegativity.

Electronegativity of an element is the tendency with which the atoms of the element attracts valence electrons in a chemical bond.

• Oxygen and nitrogen are highly electronegative elements having a strong attraction for electrons in covalent bonds.
• Carbon and hydrogen have considerably low electronegative values.

According to the Pauling's table showing electronegativities of elements,

 N - 3.0

 O - 3.5

 C - 2.5

 H - 2.1

therefore the order of increasing electronegativity is:

     H < C < N  < O
