    Below are the electronegativties and the differences between the given values in order to arrive to the final answer.

    (1) phosphorus: 2.19 lithium: 0.98; difference = 1.21

    (2) chlorine: 3.16 cesium: 1.12; difference = 2.04

    (3) aluminum: 1.61 oxygen: 3.44; difference = 1.83

    (4) bromine: 2.96 bromine: 2.96; difference = 0

    (5) oxygen: 3.44 strontium: 0.95; difference = 2.49

    Therefore, the order of electronegativity difference from biggest to least is 5, 2, 3, 1, and 4
