Question 3 (1 point) Which of the following elements is the most electronegative: arsenic, phosphorus,
sulfur, or selenium?
selenium
arsenic
phosphorus
sulfur

sulfur

Explanation:

From the given lists of elements, the one with the most electronegativity is Sulfur.

  Electronegativity is of an element is a property that combines the ability of its atom to lose and gain electrons.

It is a measure of the relative tendency with which the atoms of the element attract valence electrons in a chemical bond.

Using the Pauling's electronegative table of elements;

   Here are electronegativity values of the given elements;

selenium                 2.4

arsenic                    2.0

phosphorus            2.1

sulfur                      2.5

We see that the value of sulfur is the highest.
