Ab initio calculations have been performed on selected first‐row hydrides with a large Gaussian basis set. Energy localized molecular orbitals ( LMO ' S ) were computed and analysed in terms of their sizes and shapes. The total molecular electronic energy was partitioned into components which may be associated with an MO , and the relationship between the sizes and energies of such orbitals was examined. It was found that a simple energy–size relationship exists for core LMO ' S but only approximately holds for bond LMO ' S .
