Peer reviewedSanderson, R. T. – Education in Chemistry, 1974
Discusses the use of a new approach, rather than quantum mechanics, to obtain practical solutions to bond energy problems. Indicates that the complex nature of mathematics and the small magnitude of bond energies involved in an approximation are two practical impossibilities for quantum mechanics to reach simple, reliable results.
