Mulliken defined the electronegativity of an atom as the arithmetic mean of its ionisation energy and electron affinity.
`X_(A)=(1)/(2)(I.P.+E.A.)`
One more relationship given by him, if the values are given in eV is
`X_(A)=("Ionisation potential"+ "Electron affinity")/(5.6)`
When there is pure covalent bond between A-B
`((IP)_(A)+(EA)_(A))/(5.6)=((IP)_(B)+(EA)_(B))/(5.6)`
`implies X_(A)=X_(B)`
According to Mulliken, electronegativity depends on

A

Ionisation potential

B

Electron gain enthalpy

C

Electron affinity

D

Both (1) & (3)
