## Abstract Basis‐set balance parameters, defined in terms of various projections of an abstract force vector in the space spanned by the logarithms of orbital exponents, are evaluated for a sample of 100 Gaussian basis sets. These basis sets are taken from a random Gaussian distribution of bases,

✦ Synopsis
Ab initio calculations on the SCF, MP2, CI( SD) and CPF level are presented for disiloxane. The convergence of the results is studied for a series of basis sets of increasing quality. Large basis sets including f functions are necessary to obtain reliable results for the structure and the barrier to linearization of this molecule. The following estimates are made: The SiO distance is ( 162.6 f 0.5) pm, the barrier to linearization is smaller than 150 cm-' and the SiOSi angle is larger than 145".
