Chapter 8, Problem 105IE

(a)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The electro negativity of fluorine is greater than that of chlorine in spite chlorine has greater electron affinity.

(b)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The reason that the both ionization energy and the electron affinity relevant to the notion of electro negativity.

(c)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The value of $k$ in the electro negativity formula with the help of electro negativity value of fluorine.

(d)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The electro negativities of chlorine and oxygen using the scale above.

(e)

Interpretation Introduction

To determine:

The electro negativities of all halogens using mulliken scale and electro negativity of bromine using electro negativity value of fluorine as $4$ .
