Which element is more electronegative, sulfur or nitrogen?

**Nitrogen **is more electronegative.
Nitrogen has an electronegativity value of 3.04 and sulfur has a value of 2.58.
If you don't know these values, you can also figure it out by looking at a periodic table. Fluorine (F) is the most electronegative element, and the closer the element is to it, the more electronegative it will be.

Nitrogen is more electronegative than sulfur, with electronegativity values of 3.04 for nitrogen and 2.58 for sulfur. This means nitrogen has a stronger ability to attract electrons in chemical bonds. Electronegativity generally increases from left to right and decreases down the periodic table.
