Thermochemistry and Equilibrium Questions
What is the typical accuracy of Configuration Interaction Theory calculations?
-
Chemical accuracy (1 kcal/mol).
-
Semi-quantitative accuracy (10 kcal/mol).
-
Qualitative accuracy (100 kcal/mol).
-
It depends on the size of the molecule and the level of theory used.
D
Correct answer
Explanation
The accuracy of Configuration Interaction Theory calculations depends on the size of the molecule and the level of theory used. For small molecules, Configuration Interaction Theory can achieve chemical accuracy, while for larger molecules, it may only achieve semi-quantitative or qualitative accuracy.
