Linus Pauling measured electronegativity based on bond energies in molecules and the ability of an atom to attract electrons. He developed a scale of electronegativity values to quantify the relative ability of different atoms to attract electrons in a chemical bond.

What is the electronegativity of O?

The electronegativity of oxygen (O) is 3.44 on the Pauling scale. Electronegativity is a measure of an atom's ability to attract shared electrons in a chemical bond towards itself. Oxygen has a relatively high electronegativity due to its strong affinity for electrons.


Who determined the scale of electro negativity most often used today?

The scale of electronegativity was first drawn up by Linus Pauling in 1936. Linus Carl Pauling was born Feb 28th 1901 in Portland Oregon (USA) and died August 19th 1994 in California. He won a Nobel prize for Chemistry in 1954 and one for Peace in 1962. For more information see the related link below

What scale did linus pauling develop?

the electronegativity scale. the scale goes from 0 to 4 and there are no units. the higher the number, the more exposed the atoms nucleus is to electrons--more likely to gain an electron//less likely for it to lose one. the element with the highest value is fluorine with 3.8 and the lowest is francium with .7


How did Linus Pauling calculate the electronegativity of fluorine?

Linus Pauling calculated the electronegativity of fluorine by averaging the values of the dissociation energies of the HF, HCl, HBr, and HI molecules. He used a formula that related the bond energies to electronegativity values, based on the differences in electronegativities between the atoms involved in the bond.
