Question

What r the applications of electronegativity.
(class 11th)

Answer 1

$\sf{\underline{Applications\:of\:electronegativity:}}$


$\hookrightarrow$ It is the ability of an atom in a compound to pull the shared pair of electrons towards itself.

$\hookrightarrow$ It is not a measurable property.

$\hookrightarrow$ However, different scales are used to give values to the element.

$\hookrightarrow$ Pauling scale gives a value of 4 to F.

$\hookrightarrow$ Other elements have lower values.

$\hookrightarrow$ Electronegativity depends upon atomic size.

$\hookrightarrow$ Smaller the atom greater is the attraction between the nucleus and the shared electrons and higher is the value/electronegativity.


$\sf{\underline{Formulae\:to\:determine\:Electronegative:}}$


1) $\sf{\underline{Mulliken\:scale}}$:

$\sf{Electronegativity = \frac{IE_{1} + EA_{1}}{2}}$


2) $\sf{\underline{Pauling\:scale}}$:

$\sf{Electronegativity = \frac{Mulliken \: scale}{2.8}}$

Answer 2

Answer:

Application of electronegativity

As the electronegativity decreases, the metallic character increases. Fluorine with the highest electronegativity of 4 is the most non metallic element and caesium with the lowest electronegativity of 0.7 is the most metallic element
