Abstract
AbstractThe question whether electronegativity may be considered as quantum observable is responded in positive by a special ionization‐affinity wave function construction within the fermionic Fock space for the valence state of a chemical system. The present approach consecrates electronegativity as the minus eigen‐energy of the unperturbed occupied valence state involved in addition and release of electrons by atoms‐in‐molecules interactions. This way, the earlier crisis raised by Bergmann and Hinze concerning the assignment of chemical potential to electronegativity quantification is here solved in the favor of Parr density functional picture. © 2008 Wiley Periodicals, Inc.
