Understand that electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract and hold onto electrons in a chemical bond.
Recall that the Pauling scale is the most commonly used scale to quantify electronegativity values of elements.
Know the general trend in the periodic table: electronegativity increases from left to right across a period and decreases down a group.
Identify the elements given: Chlorine (Cl), Nitrogen (N), Fluorine (F), and Oxygen (O), and locate them on the periodic table.
Recognize that Fluorine (F) is located at the top right of the periodic table (excluding noble gases) and has the highest electronegativity value on the Pauling scale.
