✦ Synopsis

A generalization of the quantum chemical definition of valence of atoms in molecules is suggested. Valence is considered as expectation value of diatomic parts of density operators. It appears as a sum of contributions from occupied orbitals of all atomic pairs that contain the reference atom. This definition is applicable on self-consistent-field (SCF) and configuration interaction (CI) level in any atomic orbitals (AO) basis. Its usefulness is demonstrated in an application to special molecules. Photoelectron spectroscopy and reactivity is discussed in this context.

## Abstract **Covalent, ionic, or something new?** A new interpretation of the topology of the electron density at the bond critical point is proposed to characterize covalent, ionic, and charge‐shift bonding from the density point of view (see figure).

Recent improved definitions of bond order and valencies are reviewed. Extensive tests of the determination of these properties from ab initio wavefunctions are reported, using prototypical molecules, such as methyl radical, ethylene, acetylene, water and hydrogen fluoride. The extension of these def
