Formula
IC% = 100 × (1 − e^(−0.25×ΔEN²)), where ΔEN = |EN₁ − EN₂|
- Percent Ionic Character Calculator calculates its result from Deltaen, En1, En2. It uses the formula IC% = 100 × (1 − e^(−0.25×ΔEN²)), where ΔEN = |EN₁ − EN₂|. Change any input to recalculate the result instantly.
- The main inputs are Electronegativity. Enter them in the units and format shown in the calculator.
- Use the units, labels and assumptions shown beside each input so the formula is applied consistently.
- Changing any input above recalculates the result with the same calculation engine used by this page.
Example: Percent Ionic Character
Inputs
- Electronegativity: 3 Atom 1
- Electronegativity: 1 Atom 2
Using Deltaen = 2, En1 = 3, En2 = 4, the calculated result is -1.
