An atom of which element has the greatest attraction for the electrons in a bond with a hydrogen atom?
(1) chlorine (3) silicon
(2) phosphorus (4) sulfur

The question can be changed into a new form:
Which element has the most negative electron affinity, or attraction for electrons? halogens have the highest electron affinities, and thus are more attracted to the electrons in the Hydrogen atom than any element in their respective periods.
In this case all the following choices are in the same period, thus Cl or Chlorine is the answer as it is a halogen.

I’m pretty sure it’s false i’m not sure
