Abstract
Valence bond calculations of the dipole moment of CO are reported. Unlike the molecular orbital approximation, the simplest valence bond wavefunction gives the correct sign for the dipole moment. The molecular orbital wavefunction is analysed using insights from the valence bond calculations. A limited configuration interaction calculation is also reported.
