• The trend for electronegativity is the reverse of the trend for atomic size. There are two
general trends for electronegativity:
Thus the electrons are pulled more tightly to the nucleus, resulting in a smaller
atomic size
The atom attracts a bonding pair of electrons more strongly, because the bonding
pair can more closer to the nucleus
II. As you go down each group in the periodic table, the electronegativity decreases
Valence electrons are less strongly attracted to the nucleus because the number
of filled electron energy levels between the nucleus and the valence electrons
increases.
• The differences between electronegativities can be used to decide whether the bond
between two atoms is non-polar covalent, polar covalent, or ionic.

• The symbol ΔEN stands for the difference between two electronegativity values.
