Further evidence is shown that a kinetic energy functional can be used as an exchange energy functional and, conversely, exchange used as a kinetic energy functional, with a proper transformation of energy as a functional of the density. We have used functionals with two adjustable parameters to det
The evolution of the u C-C1 bands of the infrared spectrum of a Bernoullian though slightly isotactic poly(viny1 chloride) (PVC), with both the degree of s N 2 substitution reaction with sodium benzenethiolate, as studied earlier, and the increase of the nucleophile infrared bands, has been studied
