Question
Pauling's electronegativity values for elements are useful in predicting

Answer

a
Pauling introduced the electronegativity concept. He introduced the idea that the ionic character of a bond varies with the difference in electronegativity. A large difference in electronegativity leads to a bond with high degree of polar character, I.e. the bond is predominantly ionic or vice versa.
