dude dont force yourself if you dont want to talk about electronegativity. you look so fed up with it.

@BOOOOMkidddd thanks for looking out for me. although it may not seem like it i really enjoy talking about stuff like this..

So in simple terms he's saying " Indicates the relative ability of an element's atoms to attract electrons in a chemical bond." is that it?

[Sarutahiko1]

@mamafaker50 Hi mamafaker 50.

Yes, the simplest definition of electronegativity that can be given is usually stated in the following way.

"Electronegativity is the tendency of one atom to attract the electrons in a covalent bond."

Notice then that electronegativity only applies to covalent chemistry under its most strict definition, although more informally we can say "flourine has an electronegativity of 4.0" without referring to another atom...

Thanks for watching

Where is part 3? You uploaded part 1 twice instead. Now I'm going to fail chemistry and be poor the rest of my life :(

Thank you soo much!! hmm i think i learn more on youtube than in a full hour of chem class.

will you be my best friend?

ty dude helped alot

I think I just developed a crush on you.

Thank You!!! That was very helpful. I finally understood electronegativity...
