The Quantification of Electronegativity: Some Precursors
Jensen, William B.
Journal of Chemical Education, v89 n1 p94-96 Jan 2012
This paper calls attention to the early work of the American chemists Worth Rodebush and Groves Cartledge, and their anticipations of a quantitative electronegativity scale, which predate the classic 1932 paper of Linus Pauling by several years. (Contains 2 figures.)
