question

Why does theelectronegativityof the halogens decrease with increasing atomic number?

category

chemistry

options

  1. Ionization potentials decrease with increasing atomic number
  2. The atomic radius decreases with increasing atomic number, which increases electronegativity
  3. Ionization potentials increase with increasing atomic number
  4. Electronegativity increases with increasing atomic number
  5. The valence electrons become more tightly bound with increasing atomic number, leading to higher electronegativity
  6. Halogens gain electrons more readily with increasing atomic number, increasing their electronegativity
  7. The valence electron shell becomes more shielded with increasing atomic number, thus reducing electronegativity
  8. The nuclear charge decreases with increasing atomic number, making the atoms less electronegative
  9. Electrons are easier to remove from elements with lower atomic number
