There seems to be a misunderstanding in the question. Sodium chloride  NaCl  is a compound composed of sodium  Na  and chlorine  Cl  atoms, not oxygen  O . Therefore, it is not possible to determine the electronegativity difference between chlorine and oxygen in NaCl.However, I can provide you with the electronegativity values of chlorine and oxygen. Chlorine  Cl  has an electronegativity value of 3.16, while oxygen  O  has an electronegativity value of 3.44. The difference between their electronegativities is 3.44 - 3.16 = 0.28.
