Element 105 is Dubnium; electronegativity is the pull on a shared electron pair; chlorine's larger size lets it accept an electron more favourably than the very compact fluorine atom.

  1. IUPAC name of element with atomic number 105 The element with Z = 105 is named Dubnium (Db), part of the IUPAC systematic naming for elements beyond atomic number 100 (systematic name "Unnilpentium," now officially Dubnium).
  2. Electronegativity Electronegativity is the tendency (relative ability) of an atom in a covalently bonded molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself.
  3. Why Cl has higher (more negative) electron gain enthalpy than F …
