Answer:

Halogens

Explanation:

Electronegativity increases from <em>left to right</em> in the Periodic Table (see image).

We ignore the elements of Group 18 (the noble gases) because they are quite unreactive.

So, the most electronegative elements are those in Group 17 (the <em>halogens</em>).

When a radioactive isotope releases an alpha particle, the atomic number of the atom is (2 points)
natali 33 [55]
When alpha decay takes place, two protons and two neutrons are forcefully ejected from the nucleus in a way that looks very similar to a Helium nucleus. This type of decay causes the atomic mass of the parent particle to drop by four (four particles lost), but the atomic number drops by only two (two protons lost). Therefore, your answer is C.
