• Resumen

  • Hardness and polarizability are associated with easily discernible atomic shell structures across the periodic table. In a given period the noble gas atom is the hardest and the least polarizable, as expected from its exceptional stability vis-a-vis the principles of maximum hardness and minimum polarizability. The electrophilicity index also exhibits periodicity.
