Notes:
An analytical representation of atom valence state energy (E(nj), j = 1,…4; E(nj) is a nonlinear function of orbital occupancy numbers nj) is proposed and explicitly derived for H—Ar; the values of electronegativity calculated based on E(nj) agree within truncation error with those of Hinze and Jaffe. However, in our representation, orbital electronegativity χ and hardness parameters η of a given orbital always include nonlinear contributions from other orbitals, hence accounting for their influence on χ and η. An atomic charge calculation procedure based on E(nj) is also described and shown to perform well.
