The bond-dissociation energies (BDEs) of more than twenty areneΟͺM + complexes (M = Cr, Fe, Co) have been studied by mass spectrometry, using the kinetic method. With minor exceptions, the same relative order of BDEs is found for the three metals and the series of substituted arenes: electrondonating

β¦ Synopsis
The bond dissociation energies of TiZr, TiNb, and ZrV have been determined by the abrupt onset of predissociation in an extremely congested vibronic spectrum of these molecules. From these predissociation thresholds the dissociation energies are determined to be D0(TiZr) = 2.183 _ 0.001 eV, D0(TiNb) = 3.092 _ 0.001 eV, and Do(ZrV) = 2.663 _ 0.003 eV. After making a correction for the promotion energies required to prepare the atoms for bonding, the intrinsic bond energies of these molecules are compared and periodic trends in the bonding of the 3d-4d mixed transition metal dimers are discussed.

## Abstract The qualitative theory of Shockley surface states is used to discuss the existence of surface states on three faces of niobium carbide: (001), (011), and (111). The results obtained for NbC are generalized to include other simple transition metal compounds __MX__, __X__ = C, N, O. Surfa
