Here, most electronegative element = Fluorine (4)
Least electronegative = Potassium (0.82)

In short, Fluorine(F) & Potassium (K) have greatest difference in electronegativity of about 3.18

Hope this helps!

The answer is: the greatest difference in electronegativity have K and F.

Electronegativity (χ) is a property that describes the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons.  

Atoms with higher electronegativity attracts more electrons towards it, electrons are closer to that atom.  

For example fluorine has electronegativity χ = 4 and potassium χ = 0.82, fluorine attracts electron and it has negative charge and sodium has positive charge.  

Δχ(K-F) = 4 - 0.82.

Δχ(K-F) = 3.18; electronegativity difference between potassium and fluorine.

When the electronegativity difference is greater, the bond polarity is increasing.

So if there is 16 protons and 16 neutrons what would be the charge right now?​
sveta [45]

Answer:

16

Explanation:

Protons have a positive net charge,

Neutrons being neutral don't have a net charge.

Each proton is one extra net charge if you have 16 of them and the neutrons don't affect your net charge you will have 16.

Are protons and neutrons electrically charged
blondinia [14]
Protons are positively charged neutrons are neutrally charged amd electrons are negatively charged. Therefore only the protons in this instance are charged
