Okay, so one way to handle this question if you happen to have an electronegativity chart is to look up the values and put them in order.
00:08
So i'm going to write the electronegativity values beneath each of these elements.
00:15
And then i'm going to tell you a different way to do that just in case you actually don't have access to a electronegativity chart.
00:30
Okay, so one way to handle this is to look up the electronegativity numbers.
00:37
And so you would rank them in order of increasing electronegativity using these.
00:43
And so we would get this order.
00:49
Actually, it looks like zinc and chromium are equal.
00:54
Okay, so one way to handle this is to look up the electronegativity numbers.
00:56
But i would probably put them in this order for a reason i'll explain in a moment.
01:06
Now the reason that i put these two in this order is because of trends in the periodic table.
01:15
So if you imagine, you know, this is a rough outline of the periodic table...
