What trend does electronegativity follow, going down the periodic table?A.Electronegativity decreases because the size of the nucleus is bigger.B.Electronegativity decreases because the valence electrons are farther from the nucleus.C.Electronegativity increases because there are more valence electrons in the atom.D.Electronegativity increases because there are more total electrons in the atom.SUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS
