The unit of electronegativity is?
Correct answer: D. No unit
- A. Joule
- B. Kilojoules
- C. Watt
- D. No unit
Explanation
A) Joule, B) Kilojoules, and C) Watt are all units of energy or power, which do not apply to the concept of electronegativity.Option D: There are no units with electro-negativity. Linus Pauling designed a scale of electro-negativity that ranks elements concerning each other. So, for example, fluorine is a 4.0 in comparison to 0.7 for francium.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
