In this ranking we would have; C > N > O > F > Ne.

What is the formal charge?

The term formal charge has to do with the charge that an atom appears to have in  compound. We can obtain the formal charge from the formula;

Formal charge = [# of valence electrons] – [electrons in lone pairs + 1/2 the number of bonding electrons]

Let us now consider the atoms; F, O, N, C, Ne. We have to rank the atoms by the common number of single bonds the element makes when it bears no formal charge.

In this ranking we would have; C > N > O > F > Ne.
