✦ Synopsis
The modified electron gas ionic model predicts bond distances in a series of 16 gaseous metal halides without occupied d orbitals with an average error of 5 picometer (pm), but for d n compounds calculated distances exceed experimental by 30 pm. Errors in calculated cohesive energies correlate strongly with electronegativity differences.
