    Pauling's equation for determining the electronegativity of an element, is

    A)  \[{{X}_{A}}-{{X}_{B}}=0.208\sqrt{\Delta }\]

    B)  \[{{X}_{A}}+{{X}_{B}}=0.208\sqrt{\Delta }\]

    C)  \[{{X}_{A}}-{{X}_{B}}=0.208{{\Delta }^{2}}\]

    D)  \[{{X}_{A}}-{{X}_{B}}=\sqrt{\Delta }\] \[{{X}_{A}},{{X}_{B}}=\]electronegativity values of elements AandB \[\Delta =\]represents polarity of \[A-B\]bond

    Correct Answer: A

    Solution :

     Pauling scale is based upon the excess bond energies. Pauling equation for determining the electronegativity of an element is \[{{X}_{A}}-{{X}_{B}}=0.208\sqrt{\Delta }\] where, \[{{X}_{A}},{{X}_{B}}=\]electronegativity values of element A and B                         \[\Delta =\]polarity of \[A-B\]bond.
