Abstract
The Mulliken method was used to evaluate the energies of bonds of zerovalent transition metal atoms with ligands, and the strengths of these bonds were found relative to the normal covalent bonds of the same elements. The corresponding atomic radii were calculated and found to be in good accord with experiment.
