Electronegativity is not a uniquely defined property and may depend on the definition. The suggested values are all taken from WebElements as a consistent set. Many of the highly radioactive elements have values that must be predictions or extrapolations, but are unfortunately not marked as such.
See also: Electronegativities of the elements (data page) There are no reliable sources for Pm, Eu and Yb other than the range of 1.1–1.2; see Pauling, Linus (1960).
The anomalously high electronegativity of lead, in particular when compared to thallium and bismuth, is an artifact of electronegativity varying with oxidation state: its electronegativity conforms better to trends if it is quoted for the +2 state with a Pauling value of 1.87 instead of the +4 state.
The image shows a periodic table extract with the electronegativity values of metals. [12] Wulfsberg [13] distinguishes: very electropositive metals with electronegativity values below 1.4 electropositive metals with values between 1.4 and 1.9; and electronegative metals with values between 1.9 and 2.54.
Values are given for the elements in their most common and stable oxidation states. See also: Electronegativities of the elements (data page) ^ Electronegativity of francium was chosen by Pauling as 0.7, close to that of caesium (also assessed 0.7 at that point).
That value is also the standard formation energy (∆G f °) for an Fe 2+ ion, since e − and Fe(s) both have zero formation energy. Data from different sources may cause table inconsistencies.

Like the periodic table, the list below organizes the elements by the number of protons in their atoms; it can also be organized by other properties, such as atomic weight, density, and electronegativity. For more detailed information about the origins of element names, see List of chemical element name etymologies.
