✦ Synopsis


We have performed cluster calculations in a study of the bonding nature in the CeO 2 crystal using the relativistic discrete-variational X a method. The electron charge distribution of CeO 2 is compared with those of ZrO 2 and CaF 2. The charge density in the metal atomic region indicates stronger covalency for CeO 2 than that in Zr for ZrO 2. The repulsion between the metal and oxygen ionic cores is, however, strong and superior to the covalent interaction, and thus the ionic character determines the static bonding nature in the CeO 2 crystal. A population analysis shows that the mixed interaction due to the independent ionic and covalent contributions arises from the ionic Ce 5s, 5p and covalent Ce 4f, 5d orhitals which are proximate to each other in the bond region.

## Abstract The most polar bond in chemistry is that between a fluorine and an alkalimetal atom. Inspired by our recent finding that other polar bonds (Cο£ΏM and Hο£ΏM) have important covalent contributions (i.e., stabilization due to bond overlap), we herein address the question if covalency is also e
