Abstract

Dissociation energies of 1:l complexes of hydrogen, lithium and sodium halides with water, methanol and ammonia vary in the order $LiX > NaX > HX$, the dissociation energy in the case of lithium bonds being of the order of $200 kJ mol^{-1}$ or more. The dissociation energy of sodium bonds lies in the range $80-120 kJ mol^{-1}$. The magnitude of charge transfer, $\Delta q$, between the donor and acceptor molecules is also highest in the case of lithium bonds. The dissociation energies and $\Delta q$ have been related with various properties of the complexes.
