Fluorine has the highest electronegativity of all the elements, with the largest nuclear charge fluorine has the strongest pull force. Fluorine has a single empty spot in its valence electron shell. One electron added will fill that shell. Lithium on the other hand has a single valence electron so adding an electron doesn't fill the shell.
