Q

what is migration of ions

47
Q

what bonding has low electronegativity difference and high mean electronegativity

A

covalent

48
Q

mps why electronegativity increases up a group 3

A

atomic radius decreases
less electron shielding
stronger attraction to nucleus

49
Q

mps on why electronegativity increases across a period

A

similar radius and shielding
nuclear charge increases
stronger attraction to the nucleus
