Skoltech chemists have proposed a new electronegativity scale and published their findings in Nature Communications. The concept of electronegativity introduced in the 1930s by Linus Pauling, a great ...

While trying to convey complex chemistry concepts to his students, high school chemistry teacher Jeffrey Hepburn likes to step back from the structures and inject a little humanity. For example, when ...

CORVALLIS, Ore. – Researchers at Oregon State University have created a new, unifying method to describe a basic chemical concept called "electronegativity," first described almost 80 years ago by OSU ...

PEARSON 1 recently pointed out that Pauling's bond energy equation does not give reasonable values of the enthalpy changes for a series of reactions, and he has also stressed a number of pitfalls of ...
