Electro Negativity Worksheet

This document provides an electronegativity worksheet that asks students to define ionic and covalent bonds, polar and non-polar covalent bonds, and how electronegativity values determine bond polarity. It includes a table for predicting bond type based on electronegativity differences and questions about trends in electronegativity across and down the periodic table. Students are asked to identify the most and least electronegative elements in sets and use electronegativity values to predict bond types for pairs of elements.
