The statement that "the electronegativity of N on the Pauling scale is 3.0 in all the nitrogen compounds" is incorrect because:

1. Electronegativity of an element is a variable property.
2. Pauling scale is not used to measure electronegativity.
3. The electronegativity of N on the Pauling scale is 12.0
4. None of the above.
