What kind of element has the greatest tendency to attract electrons?why?

  • Inert gasses or noble gasses on the right side of  the periodic table are the element which most likely attract electrons.  It's because the nuclear charge for the elements in the right side of the periodic table  is higher, and the atom of inert gases or noble gases is the greatest attraction for electrons.
  • Nonmetal because they have a higher (almost complete or stable) atomic numberNon-metals prefer to draw electrons,  since they have high electronegativity.  Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's tendency to attract  electrons, the higher its value, the higher its attraction tendency.
