Conclusion
In conclusion it must be pointed out that the method of determining electron density for the solution of the question of the nature of the chemical bond is one of the direct methods for the investigation of this problem. It is deserving of great attention from investigators whose work is directed to the study of the nature of the chemical bond.
The views recently expressed abroad (Snow) and here (Konobeevsky, Boky) with respect to the defects of the electron-density method are erroneous and are in conflict with the experimental data and the inferences that can be drawn from them.
