Select the more electronegative element in each pair. a. Cl or Fb. Se or Oc. N or Asd. Na or Mg

The answer to your question is below

Explanation:

Electronegativity is a measure of how strongly atoms attract electrons to themselves.

Process

Look for the electronegativity of each element and compare.

a) Cl = 3.16 F = 3.98 Fluorine has a higher electronegativity

b) Se = 2.55 O = 3.44 Oxygen has a higher electronegativity

c) N = 3.04 As = 2.18 Nitrogen has a higher electronegativity

d) Na = 0.93 Mg = 1.31 Magnesium has a higher electronegativity
