    Which of the following is not true? An element, with high electronegativity is, generally:

    A)  having a high ionization potential

    B)  having high electron affinity

    C)  a metal

    D)  having small size

    Correct Answer: C

    Solution :

    An element, which has high electro-negativity, also has high ionisation energy and electron affinity. Hence, such element has a tendency to gain electron and is non-metal. (The high ionisation energy of such element is due to its small size).
