Write a complete sentence to describe what happens to electronegativity as you go down a group on the periodic table.

OpenStudy (photon336):

as you go down a group one important thing happens electronegativity decreases. atomic radius increases as you go down a group. also there are more shells, and what happens is that the outermost electrons are not as tightly held by the nucleus because they are farther away from it and electronegativity goes down. |dw:1445022107636:dw|
