Electronegativity is the ability for an atom to attract electrons. It is expressed in numeric values in Paulings (a unit named after a chemist). On the Periodic Table it increases from left to right across a period. It decreases down a group on the periodic table.
Electronegativity is the tendency of an element to attract a bonded pair of element towards it. Down a group, electronegativity of the elements decreases. Across a period, electronegativity increases.
The trend for first ionization energy
First ionization energy has a trend similar to that of electronegativity.
Ionization energy would be similar.
Electronegativity increases across a period (left to right).
Going down a group...electronegativity decreases Going across...electronegativity increases

electronegativity
Electronegativity and first ionization energy both increase going up the Periodic Table.
Electronegativity increases across a period (left to right).

As you move from left to right across the periodic table, electronegativity increases, and as you move down the table electronegativity decreases.
As you move from left to right across the Periodic Table, electronegativity increases, and as you move down the table electronegativity decreases.
Electronegativity increases from left to right.
