10. Periodic Properties of the Elements
Periodic Trend: Electronegativity
Problem 102c
Textbook Question
Textbook QuestionOne scale for electronegativity is based on the concept that the electronegativity of any atom is proportional to the ionization energy of the atom minus its electron affinity: electronegativity = k1I - EA2, where k is a proportionality constant. (b) Why are both ionization energy and electron affinity relevant to the notion of electronegativity?
