    Explanation:

    Electronegativity is a periodic property that indicates the tendency of an atom to attract electrons when combined with another element. It is very useful for predicting the type of bonding of compounds, so it is not possible to talk about electronegativity in elements in a fundamental state.

    In the periodic table the electronegativity increases diagonally and the values were established in the so-called Pauling scale.

    It is expected that elements with high electron affinity and high ionization energy possess considered electronegativity, so the group of nonmetals have high electronegativity, in fact flour is the most electronegative element
