Calculated Electron Affininty for ClF (Chlorine monofluoride)

18 06 04 13 53
Experimental Electron Affinity is 2.86 ± 0.2 eV
Please note! These calculated electron affinity energies have the vibrational zero-point energy (zpe) included, but the zpe has NOT been scaled. Click on an entry for more details, including the ionization energy with a scaled zpe.
