The total energy of the ion-hydrogen molecule is equal to -16.3 eV for the equilibrium internuclear distance equal to 1.06 A. Calculate:

a) The electrostatic repulsion energy between the nuclei, in eV.

b) The contribution of electronic energy, in eV.

c) The total energy of the molecule, in eV.

d) The binding energy, in kJ mol-1.

Data: (epsilon)0 = 8.854x10-12 C2 N-1 m-2; elemental electric charge  e = 1.602x10-19 C; energy of the H atom in the ground state = - 13.6 eV; NA = 6.022x1023 mol-1
