Electronegativity and factors affecting electronegativity

Electronegativity:
The tendency of an atom to attract shared pair of electron towards it side is called electronegativity.

Variation of Electronegativity in group:
Electronegativity decrease from top to buttom in a group because as atomic size increase tendency to attract shared pair of electron decrease.

Variation of Electronegativity in periods:
Electronegativity increase from left to right in a period because as effective nuclear charge increase tendency to attract shared pair of electron increase.

Factors affecting electronegativity:

1.Oxidation state:
more is the oxidation state ,more is the attraction for electron, hence more will be the electronegativity. so pb^+4 is more electronegativity than pb^+2.

2 .Hyberdistaion:
Hyberdistation also affect electronegativity.
sp^3 25℅ s character
sp^2 33.3℅ s character
sp 50℅ s character

s orbital are more penetrating (s>p>d>f) so hybrid orbital with greater s character will be more electronegativity. so sp carbon atom is more electronegativity than sp^2 and sp^3 hybridisation of carbon atom.

4.Positive charge:
an atom with positive charge will attract electron more readily than a neutral atom .so positive charge atom are more electronegativity than neutral atom.

5.Bond order:
more is the bond order, more will be the electronegativity.

eg. carbon of alkyne is more electronegativity than carbon atom of alkene.

Electronegativity scales and disadvantage of scales and its nunericals

Electronegativity scales: 1.Pauling scale of electronegativity: in diatomic molecule (A-B) ,the bond formed between two atoms A and B will be intermediate between pure Covalent (A-B) and pure ionic character, the bond between A and B will be strong than bond energy increased. if bond (A-B) has been purily covalent than bond energy can be calculated as average bond energy of bond (A-A) and bond (B-B). that means it is equal to bond energy of bond (A-B) E(A-B) = 1/2[ E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] however experiemental value of bond (A-B) more than this value because of difference in electronegativity of A and B the difference ∆ is given by simple expression ∆ = E(A-B) - 1/2 [E(A-A) +E(B-B) ] where E(A-B) is experimental value of bond energy. if Ҳ(A) and Ҳ(B) are the electronegative of elements A and B than Ҳ(A) - Ҳ(B) = 0.18√∆ for numerical ∆ = E(A-B) -[√(E(A-A) ×E(B-B) )] Disadvan...

Radial probability distribution curves

Radial probhjjhajajbability distribution curves: The probability of finding the electron is given by the quantity sie^2.By radial probability us probability of finding the electron within small Radial space around the nucleus. volume of spherical shell between radius r and r+dr =4πr^2 and probability of finding the electron will be 4πr^2dr sie^2. radial probability distribution curves are obtained by plotting radial probability at various distance from the nucleus . 1.Radial probability distribution curves for S orbital n=1, l= 0. distance from nucleus here A° is called angstrom. the probability of finding of electron in a shell is maximum at distance r=r° (r not) which is 0.529 A° for H atom. diagram shows that probability plot for 2s has(two region of high probability) or (two peaks) separated by node. we conclude that no. of high probability region in S orbital = n no. of node = ( n-1)
