Explicación
## Step 1Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons. It is a chemical property that is used to predict the nature of chemical bonds.## Step 2As we move across a period in the periodic table, the number of protons in the nucleus increases. This means that the positive charge of the nucleus increases.## Step 3The increase in the positive charge of the nucleus attracts the bonding pair of electrons more strongly. This means that the electronegativity increases.
