  2. Electronegativity - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronegativity

    It is to be expected that the electronegativity of an element will vary with its chemical environment, [7] but it is usually considered to be a transferable property, that is to say that similar values will be valid in a variety of situations. Caesium is the least electronegative element (0.79); fluorine is the most (3.98).

  3. Periodic trends - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Periodic_trends

    According to this scale, fluorine is the most electronegative element, while cesium is the least electronegative element. [18] Trend-wise, as one moves from left to right across a period in the modern periodic table, the electronegativity increases as the nuclear charge increases and the atomic size decreases.

  4. Electronegativities of the elements (data page) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Electronegativities_of_the...

    Many of the highly radioactive elements have values that must be predictions or extrapolations, but are unfortunately not marked as such. This is especially problematic for francium, which by relativistic calculations can be shown to be less electronegative than caesium, but for which the only value (0.7) in the literature predates these ...

  5. Template : Periodic table (electronegativity by Pauling scale)

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Template:Periodic_table...

    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 Nature of the Chemical Bond. 3rd ed., Cornell University Press, p. 93.

  6. Neon - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neon

    The Allen electronegativity scale, which relies only upon (measurable) atomic energies, identifies neon as the most electronegative element, closely followed by fluorine and helium. [ 41 ] The triple point temperature of neon (24.5561 K) is a defining fixed point in the International Temperature Scale of 1990 .

  7. List of chemical elements - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/List_of_chemical_elements

    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.

  8. Alkali metal - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alkali_metal

    The alkali metals are among the most electropositive elements on the periodic table and thus tend to bond ionically to the most electronegative elements on the periodic table, the halogens (fluorine, chlorine, bromine, iodine, and astatine), forming salts known as the alkali metal halides. The reaction is very vigorous and can sometimes result ...

  9. Arrow pushing - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Arrow_pushing

    The anion is the species that retains the electrons from the bond while the cation is stripped of the electrons from the bond. The anion usually forms on the most electronegative atom, in this example atom A. This is because the most electronegative atom will naturally attract electrons towards itself more strongly, leading to its negative charge.
