Solution

To predict the order of increasing electronegativity for the elements Li, N, and C, we need to compare their electronegativity values. Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract electrons towards itself in a chemical bond.

  1. Li (Lithium): The electronegativity of lithium is relatively low compared to nitrogen and carbon. Therefore, it will have the lowest electronegativity value among the three elements.

  2. N (Nitrogen): Nitrogen has a higher electronegativity value compared to lithium. Therefore, it will have a higher electronegativity value than lithium but lower than carbon.

  3. C (Carbon): Carbon has the highest electronegativity value among the three elements. Therefore, it will have the highest electronegativity value.

So, the order of increasing electronegativity for the elements Li, N, and C is Li < N < C.
