Question for Exams [ENDORSED]

[Matthew D 3F]

Would we need to know exact electronegativity values, or just their general trends on the periodic table?

[Alma Flores 1D]

We just need to know the general trends on the periodic table.

[Sarai Ventura 1L]

You do not need to know or try to memorize the exact electronegativity values you just have to know the general trend of the periodic table.

[Chem_Mod]

General trends, and fluorine has the highest electronegativity (which I have commented on several times in class).

[Mariah Guerrero 1J]

So for electronegativity, we should be able to recall that it increases as you go across the periodic table and decreases as you go down the periodic table. The greater the difference in electronegativity, then greater ionic character the bond has.

[Jocelyn Fermin1J]

A t.a told me to be mindful of the electronegativity but we don't have to memorize it.
