Abstract
The 1- and 2-matrices of the 10-electron polyhydrides, methide ion, ammonia, and oxonium ion, computed from one-center expansion wavefunctions with configuration interaction, are examined. The results are discussed in relation to the utility and limitations of one-center expansion wavefunctions. An explanation of Rutledge and Saturno's result, that methide ion and ammonia are planar, is proposed.
