Q. Which of the following atoms is the most electronegative?

TS EAMCET 2020

Solution:

Ability of an atom to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself, is called electronegativity.
Fluorine $(F)$ has highest electronegativity among the given species.
Due to small size and seven electrons in its outermost shell, it shows highest electronegativity.
At pulling scale, it is considered as $4.0.$
