The number of elements among the following which have lower electronegativity than ' S '

N, Na, P, O, F, B, Se

Answer:
4
Solution:

Electronegativity (Pauling scale approx):

S ≈ 2.58

Compare:

N (3.0) higher

Na (0.9) lower

P (2.19) lower

O (3.44) higher

F (3.98) higher

B (2.04) lower

Se (2.55) slightly lower

Lower than S: Na, P, B, Se → 4 elements
