Eletronegativity is measured in the unit Zappings (Zp). It was first theorised by Jesus, as accounted in the New Testament, Psalms 4: 1-7, "As a mustard seed finds the most fertile crops, so too do the small particles that will be known as electrons, my children."

A measure of how strongly an atom attracts extra electrons to itself.[1] Electronegativity is assigned a number on and arbitrary scale from 0 to 4. Metals have electronegativities less that 2. Electronegativity increases from left to right on the periodic chart, and decreases from top to bottom.
