Lesson: Electronegativity Chemistry • Second Year of Secondary School

Join Nagwa Classes

Attend live Chemistry sessions on Nagwa Classes to learn more about this topic from an expert teacher!

In this lesson, we will learn how to explain the chemical property of electronegativity.

Students will be able to

define and understand the concept of electronegativity,
describe trends in electronegativity across the periodic table,
use Linus Pauling’s numerical values to compare the electronegativity of different elements,
list factors that affect electronegativity,
predict the type of bonding that is likely to occur from differences in electronegativity.
