Abstract
The distance in an atom from the nucleus to the final node in the wavefunction of a valence electron has been defined as the nodal radius. This parameter, in conjunction with a Thomas-Fermi pseudo-potential, is used to calculate the nearest-neighbor distance in some octet compounds. Calculated values of the atomic radii are compared with the semi-empirical ionic and tetrahedral radii for atoms in these compounds. © 1981.
