The Protonic Counterpart of Electronegativity and its Relationship to Electronic and Protonic Hardness

  • Conference paper
Applied Quantum Chemistry

Abstract

The protonic counterpart of electronegativity which we recently proposed as an organizing principle for. gas-phase acidity and basicity is presented here in terms of a hardness matrix related to second derivatives of the energy. Energy differences are expressed in terms of electronic and/or protonic chemical potential means.
