Explain why the electronegativity of elements in periods increases from left to right.

Electronegativity in periods (from left to right) increases due to the fact that the number of electrons at the outer level increases, and the radius of the atom decreases with an increase in the ordinal number of the element (nuclear charge). The larger the radius, the weaker the outer electrons are held.
