Abstract:KEYWORDSRecently we have calculated the electronegativity of 103 elements of the periodic table relying upon the basic approach of Allred and Rochow. We carefully allayed the dimensional mismatch seemingly prevalent in all previous calculations so that the computed electronegativity is in its proper force dimension. Since the electronegativity is neither a physical observable nor a quantum mechanically determinable quantity, there is no benchmark to perform any validity test of any scale of electronegativity. … Show more
