According to 'Little and Jones' scale
Cl 2.83
Se 2.48
S 2.44
Selenium is more in common with Sulfur because they are in the same group. They have the same number of valence electrons and the only elements Selenium is related to is Sulfur and Tellurium. Anna C.
The S-Cl bond is polar. The electronegativity difference between S and Cl is 0.58, which means it is polar.
SCl3. It is polar because it has a lone pair on the central atom.
The bond between carbon and chlorine is more polar than the bond between carbon and sulfur. To compare bond polarities, compare the difference in the electronegativities between the atoms. The difference between carbon (with an electronegativity of 2.55) and sulfur (2.58) is 0.03. The difference between carbon (2.55) and chlorine (3.16) is 0.61. Since the difference between C and Cl is larger than the difference between C and S, the C-Cl bond is more polar.
These triads are: Li-Na-K, Ca-Sr-Ba, Cl-Br-I, S-Se-Te.
The element with the greatest electronegativity in this scenario would be Cl or Chlorine.
F, fluorine.

SCl3. It is polar because it has a lone pair on the central atom.
Note: the chemical symbols must be written with first letter capital.Nitrogen has the greatest electronegativity after Pauling: 3,18.
From greatest to least tendency to accept an electron, they are F, O, C, Li, and Be.

This may be because of the reversed polarity (of CCl4) i.e. a positive halogen. The element sulfur should be able to form S(CH3)6 (theoretically feasible) and F3S≡C-SF3 (observed). These compounds contain sulfur in the formal oxidation state of +6. So, Chlorine should form at least Cl(CH3)3 or even Cl(CF3)5.It may be an overestimated electronegativity for chlorine (and for heavier halogens). The real electronegativity descending order may be Ne > F~O > N > C~Ar~He > Kr > Cl > Br > S > ....
