While this is nice, it would be more helpful to sort the elements by their electronegativities:<br \/>\n<code>:SortD(L2,L1)<\/code><br \/>\nThis command sorts the second column, electronegativity values, in descending order (highest value first) and keeps the values with their corresponding atomic number values. The SortD( command is found by pressing <i class=\"ti\">stat<\/i>. You can now view the tables and see that element number 9, Fluorine, has the highest electronegativity, followed by Oxygen, Chlorine, etc.<br \/>\n<img loading=\"lazy\" decoding=\"async\" class=\"alignnone size-full wp-image-434\" src=\"https:\/\/calcking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/4.png\" alt=\"periodic table app step 4\" width=\"732\" height=\"184\" srcset=\"https:\/\/calcking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/4.png 732w, https:\/\/calcking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/4-150x38.png 150w, https:\/\/calcking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/4-300x75.png 300w, https:\/\/calcking.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2017\/12\/4-600x151.png 600w\" sizes=\"(max-width: 732px) 100vw, 732px\" \/><br \/>\nOn closer examination you will find that electronegativity decreases as you move from the top left to the bottom right of the periodic table.
