between the elements oxygen, scandium, aluminum, or cesium? thank youuu
OxygenSince, metals like aluminum and cesium have tendency to lose electronsSo, it will have less pull on its valence electronsScandium is also a metal and has the same tendency to lose electronsSo, it will have less pull on its valence electronsOxygen, being a non-metal has higher affinity for electrons due to its high electronegativity, and hence would like to have the strongest pull on its valence electronsThe electronegativity values for other elements is very less as compared to oxygenHope this helpsWW.
