<u>Answer:</u> The correct answer is Option A.
<u>Explanation:</u>
Electronegativity is defined as the tendency of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself whenever a bond is formed.
This property increases as we move from left to right across a period because the number of charge on the nucleus gets increased and electrons are attracted more towards the nucleus.
This property decreases as we move from top to bottom in a group because the electrons get add up in the new shells which make them further away from the nucleus.
Thus, the correct answer is Option A.
I’d say most likely air, oxygen, or carbon dioxide
When HCl is added to a saturated solution of PbCl2, the solubility of PbCl2 would decrease so precipitation would occur. The decrease in the solubility is due to the common ion effect or the presence of Cl- ions in both compounds.
