What does electronegative mean? Having a negative electric charge. Electronegativity definition at Dictionary.com, a free online dictionary with pronunciation, synonyms and translation. Electronegativity is an atom's tendency to attract electrons to itself in a chemical bond. The most electronegative element is fluorine. The least electronegative or most electropositive element is francium. The greater the difference between atom electronegativity values, the more polar the chemical bond formed between them. Electronegativity is a measure of the tendency of an atom to attract a bonding pair of electrons. The Pauling scale is the most commonly used. Fluorine (the most electronegative element) is given a value of 4.0, and values range down to caesium and francium which are the least electronegative at 0.7.

The element which has the highest electronegativity value is Fluorine with 3.98 χ. And the element which has the lowest electronegativity value is Francium in 0.7 χ.
