Electron affinity and ionization energy are averaged together in order to measure this property on a scale named for Mulliken, and the first scale to define this property is named after Pauling.
This property can be measured using the reciprocal of atomic volume, which can be used to determine molecular geometry under Sanderson's Equalization Principle. The square of covalent radii is used to define this property under the Allred-Roschow Scale, and another way to measure this property uses the average energy of valence electrons, a method named after Allen. Electron affinity and ionization energy are averaged together in order to measure this property on a scale named for Mulliken, and the first scale to define this property is named after Pauling. For 10 points, name this ability of an atom to attract electrons, of which fluorine has the highest value.
This property can be measured using the reciprocal of atomic volume, which can be used to determine molecular geometry under Sanderson's Equalization Principle.
