Abstract
As an alternative to the density functional approach to estimating total molecular correlation energies, the equation E~corr~=β0.06593 β R, where R~i~=γr^2^γ and i runs over the localized molecular orbitals was fitted to 25 STOβ3__G__ data points with a rootβmeanβsquare error of 0.025 hartree. Other more general equations were tried but no significant improvement was observed in the fit.

## Abstract __Ab initio__ calculations have been performed on selected firstβrow hydrides with a large Gaussian basis set. Energy localized molecular orbitals (LMO'S) were computed and analysed in terms of their sizes and shapes. The total molecular electronic energy was partitioned into components
