The (2) calcium atom, because when looking at the periodic table, we see that the calcium atom is in a location where according to the periodic table, has the lower electronegativities in respect to the other three choices. We see that it also has a lower electronegativity value than the others. Electronegativity is the attraction constant for the electrons in a chemical bond. The higher the electronegativity, the higher the attraction of the electrons. Fluorine has the highest electronegativity with 4.0.

Three elements are represented by the letters A, B, and C. the three elements have the same number of valence electrons. Element
AfilCa [17]
Answer:
A- beryllium
B- calcium
C- magnesium

Explanation
NOTE: all element in group 2 have 2 balance electrons

First let’s start with B- number of electrons= number of protons which is equal to the atomic number. therefore, the answer is calcium as it’s atomic number is 20

C- magnesium will have three energy levels considering it has 12 electrons (2,8,2).

A- beryllium is the lightest one in group 2 as it has the atomic mass of 9.0122.
