Preferred Label : heterolytic bond-dissociation energy;
IUPAC definition : The energy required to break a given bond of some specific compound by heterolysis.
For the dissociation of a neutral molecule AB in the gas phase into A sup class plus
/sup and B sup class minus /sup the heterolytic bond-dissociation energy D(A sup
class plus /sup B sup class minus /sup ) is the sum of the bond dissociation energy,
i D /i (A–B), and the adiabatic ionization energy of the radical A· minus the
electron affinity of the radical B·.;
