What element has a bigger electronegative sulfur or oxygen?
LinzyGreen
Oxygen is more electronegative.
Oxygen is above sulfur on the Periodic Table. As you go up on the table electronegativity increases.
The only thing more electronegative than oxygen is fluorine.

Is oxygen more electronegative than sulfur?
Yes, oxygen is more electronegative than sulfur. This is because its electronegativity is about 3.44, while sulfur's is about 2.58.
Is sulfur metal nonmetal or metalloid?
There is no known "sulfur metal". Sulfur is a nonmetal element, but in compounds with more electronegative nonmetals, such as oxygen, fluorine, and chlorine, sulfur can have a positive oxidation state.
What is the most electronegative element cesium boron sulfur fluorine or barium?
Flourine
What is more reactive oxygen or selenium?
Oxygen. Oxygen is a gas making it react faster, while sulfur is a solid.
Is sulfur Happy?
Sulfur is always happy. It is the 7th most electronegative element. It is necessary for living organisms, and can form dozens of allotropes.
Is hydrogen more electronegative than sulfur?
Sulfur is more electronegative than hydrogen
Why is oxygen more electronegative than sulfur?
due to small atomic size oxygen atom has high tendency to attract the electrons.
Which element is Chemically similar to sulfur?
oxygen
The most electronegative atoms typically present in biological molecules?
Oxygen & Nitrogen, followed distantly by sulfur.
Which is more polar h2s or h2o?
H2O is more polar as oxygen is more electronegative than sulfur and will therefore attract the electrons more than sulfur
Is beryllium more electronegative than sulfur?
Sulfur is more electronegative than beryllium. The electronegativity of sulfur is 2.58, and the electronegativity of beryllium is 1.57.
Which of these is NOT a diatomic element fluorine sulfur oxygen hydrogen?
Sulfur is not diatomic. It forms S8 molecules rather than S2.
