摘要：By incorporating the solvent effect into the Born effective radius, we have proposed an electronegativity scale of metal ions in aqueous solution with the most common oxidation states and hydration coordination numbers in terms of the effective ionic electrostatic potential. It is found that the metal ions in aqueous solution are poorer electron acceptors compared to those in the gas phase. This solution-phase electronegativity scale shows its efficiency in predicting some important properties of metal ions in aqueous solution such as the aqueous acidities of the metal ions, the stability constants of metal complexes, and the solubility product constants of the metal hydroxides. We have elaborated that the standard reduction potential and the solution-phase electronegativity are two different quantities for describing the processes of metal ions in aqueous solution to soak up electrons with different final states. This work provides a new insight into the chemical behaviors of the metal ions in aqueous solution, indicating a potential application of this electronegativity scale to the design of solution reactions.
