Energy Levels of Electrons. As you may remember from chemistry, an atom consists of electrons orbiting around a nucleus. ... They are restricted to orbits with only certain energies. Electrons can jump from one energy level to another, but they can never have orbits with energies other than the allowed energy levels.
The best answer is (2) <span>stronger attraction for electrons, for the fluorine atom has a higher electronegativity than the carbon one, if not highest of all nonmetals.
Hope this helps~</span>
