Why is fluorine's high electronegativity significant in the formation of compounds like Teflon (polytetrafluoroethylene)?

• A. Fluorine's high electronegativity leads to weak bonds with carbon, making Teflon highly stable.
• B. Fluorine's high electronegativity makes Teflon highly unreactive but unstable.
• C. Fluorine's high electronegativity makes Teflon highly reactive and unstable.
• D. Fluorine's high electronegativity leads to strong bonds with carbon, making Teflon highly stable and non-reactive.

Answer: (D)
