Question

Calculate electronegativity value of chlorine on Mulliken scale , given that IP(Ionization enthalpy ) = 13ev and EA ( Electron gain enthalpy) = 4.0 ev .

Answer 1

Answer:

given = IP(Ionization enthalpy ) = 13ev

           EA ( Electron gain enthalpy) = 4.0 ev .

to find = electronegativity

solution,

Xcl = $\frac{(IP)cl+ (EA)cl}{5.6}$

     =  $\frac{13 + 4 }{5.6 }$

     =   3.03

the electronegativity value of chlorine is 3.03

Answer 2

Explanation:

$\rm \chi _{Cl }= \dfrac{(IP)_{Cl}+(EA)_{Cl}}{5.6}$

$\rm \implies \dfrac{13+4}{5.6}$

$\rm \implies \dfrac{17}{5.6}$

$\rm \implies \bf 3.03$
