Abstract:

Tables of the formation energies, dissociation energies, ionization energies, electronic energy levels, and vibrational level spacings for most atomic, diatomic, and triatomic molecules involving hydrogen, carbon, nitrogen, oxygen, and argon are presented. Many positively and negatively charged ions are included. Tables of the equilibrium fractional electronic-state populations, and graphs of the equilibrium constants for dissociation, ionization, and detachment for most of the atomic and diatomic species are appended. A brief discussion of the significance of such data precedes the tables and graphs.
