Question
Which of the following elements has the lowest electronegativity?A.Barium (Ba)B.Calcium (Ca)C.Strontium (Sr)D.Magnesium (Mg)SUBMITarrow_backPREVIOUS
Solution
To answer this question, we need to refer to the periodic table and look at the electronegativity values of each of these elements. Electronegativity generally decreases as you move down a group on the periodic table.
Here are the electronegativity values for each of the given elements:
A. Barium (Ba) - 0.89 B. Calcium (Ca) - 1.00 C. Strontium (Sr) - 0.95 D. Magnesium (Mg) - 1.31
From these values, we can see that Barium (Ba) has the lowest electronegativity. So, the answer is A. Barium (Ba).
