Which of the Following is a Correct Listing of Electronegativity

Question

Which of the following is a correct listing of electronegativity values, from low to high?
A) C, H, O, N
B) N, H, O, C
C) H, C, N, O
D) H, C, O, N

Accepted Answer

Electronegativity increases from hydrogen (H) to carbon (C) to nitrogen (N) to oxygen (O), making option C the correct sequence from low to high electronegativity.
