Electronegativity! Definition and Examples
Electronegativity is a super important concept that affects so many parts of chemistry! It’s often the first periodic trend that students learn and can be used to predict tons of ways that atoms and molecules will behave in other situations.

that analogy will stick with me for life, not just for my university aptitude test.

hahaha awesome!
"He just beats the other guy's knees with a lead pipe" Ya know, as most Olympic athletes do.
I've literally searched all of yt trying to understand what electronegativity is and i haven't found a single video as good as this one. the swimming team analogy was spot on. thank you so so so much :)))
Damn Fluorine, he’s hardcore. Got some beef to work out.

Oxygen is the real king. Most elements will enter the highest known oxidation state in oxides and or oxyanions or nitrido-oxide complexes. Oxygen can make Cl2O7, N2O5, Mn2O7 or XeO4 whereas fluorine fails miserably making OF3+ cation.
The way my teacher and a lot of videos explained it, I couldnt understand but this is like perfect for someone with ADHD or just anyone
Help so much they way u broke it down to the Elements being desperate!! Struggling so bad in chem so THANK YOU From the bottom of my scientifically challenged heart
Thank you so much!! I watched like 2 other videos and could not follow along thank you for breaking it down in an easy to follow manner!!

yay!! glad you're getting it!
Thank youuuuu! I don't know why this was so difficult for me up to this point, but you're explanations really brought it down to the crayon level for me and I finally feel confident moving on.
This video was well detailed and helpful. Thank you so much.
Thank you so much for this, time to ace my quiz💕🤠🤠
Thank you! thats very clear
I finally get it thank you so much.

Thank you... sending support from the Philippines
Thanks I saw 13 minutes and said, this is a long explanation, nut it was worth it
In regards to adding chlorine in the mix, the way I worked this problem out was by listing how many protons, neutrons, and electrons each element has, finding how many shells each has, then finding the valence number of each. From that I have that argon is least electromagnetic because it’s a noble gas, Caesium because it has the most amount of shells, silicone because it needs 4 more electrons to complete its outer shell, phosphorus because it needs 3 more electrons to complete its outer shell, then oxygen because it needs 2 more electrons to complete its outer shell. If we were to toss Chlorine in this then it would be: Ar, Cs, Chlorine because it has 4 shells, Si, P, O. Would that not be correct? I added in shell deduction based on your Bromine and Fluorine example. So in theory, can we say that when determining electronegativity, the more shells the elements has the least electronegative it is, AND the more valence electrons it needs, the least electronegative it is.
Excellent explanation.

Nice Tanya Harding reference.
Thanks ❤
Thank u much Shawtyyyy~
Fluorine out here breaking kneecaps
fluorine grew up with Italian mobsters lol
So, it is a good term for evil and good, also polar - non-polar, and range of highest to lowest Electronegativity, so it comes down to two so the evilest has lowest inner resource so like people that have a low resource so they are desperate since there is no inner backup like friends, mentally shield of emotional impact to the source, etc, so the top ladder of the most right side is most evil compare to the most left side of the bottom ladder that is inner stable like a human that has all within not to be overwhelming or be desperate to steal, kill, etc, but accept the lost base on the person itself that is an atom with a highest inner resource to success because nothing depends on outside but inside that is within your power. For the gas column, so they are so stable, so more stable, that they don't rely on other human things like friends or anything, so they are higher level, the highest part is most right of the gas column and bottom right, 118 Uuo, so the inner is so high so basically a god, compared to 1 h, that is the lowest electronegativity, that is human. So, the highest electronegativity is the highest polar so the inner resource is higher level so has no need to bond to the other. So, we are 17 columns, but the last column that is 18 is god. Oxygen is polar so means the highest column of electronegativity, but not the highest density of the highest electronegativity which is 118 Uuo. So, electronegativity is dependent on the valent electron that binds, but since Electronegativity is dependent on the binding part so gases are not bindable. What causes Electronegativity to form since it changes from polar to non-polar which is gases are, so how much of lowest to highest or beyond highest that is into the non-polar catalog.
F > O > N > Cl

I believe Ne > F > O > N > Ar >= C > Kr > Cl. Difficult to include He. However, the EN of He should be less than that of O. To my personal taste, He should be moved to group 2.
So dark but I get it
What an analogy lol
Caesium is less electronegative than francium.

I don't believe this as Ra(OH)2 is more basic than Ba(OH)2 and RaSO4 is less soluble than BaSO4. FrOH should be more basic than CsOH. May be from period 8 onwards relativistic effects will play.
the examples are real gore in here
