Question

what is electronegativity how is it calculated write its applications​

Answer 1

Answer:

Electronegativity is a function of an atom's ability to attract an electrons binding pair.

Electronegativity, symbol χ, measures the tendency of an atom to attract a shared pair of electrons. An atom's electronegativity is affected by both its atomic number and the distance at which its valence electrons reside from the charged nucleus.

Explanation:

Applications:

          With the rapid development of new materials, electronegativity models have been widely used to identify the composition and structure of materials, and also quantitatively calculate various physical properties of crystal materials such as the superconductivity, electronic polarizability, elastic modulus, and hardness.
