    The electronegativity of the following elements increases in the order

    A)  C, N, Si. P                           

    B)  N, Si, C, P

    C)  Si, P, C, N                           

    D)  P, Si, N, C

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    Electronegativity increases from left to right in a period and decreases from top to bottom in a group. Variation is more rapid in group than in a period, hence, the desired order is: Electronegativity: Si < P < C < N.
