1. Electronegativity What is it? Electronegativity is the power of an atom to attract electron density Remember the definition … … look for where you get the ticks! in a covalent bond

2. Electronegativity Pauling’s electronegativity scale The higher the value, the more electronegative the element Fluorine is the most electronegative element It has an electronegativity value of 4.0
