Question
The electronegativity of the following elements increases in the order

Answer

c
The electronegativities of $C , N , Si$ and $P$ are in the order of.

$Si \,<\, P\, <\, C\, < \,N$

In a period, electronegativity increases from left to right. In a group, the electronegativity decreases down the group.
