Abstract:
It was a surprising discovery nearly ten years ago that the ground state Bohr radius of hydrogen atom is divided into two Golden sections pertaining to the electron and proton. This resulted in the cascade of findings which led to the general result that the bond lengths d(AA) between two atoms of the same kind are sums of the cationic and anionic radii. This enabled to establish that atomic and Golden ratio based ionic radii are additive in the bond lengths of small as well as large molecules. Further, the covalent bond lengths of elements were shown to be linearly related to their Bohr radii obtained from their first ionization potentials and that for all elements the ratio of the covalent radii to their Bohr radii is a simple function of the Golden ratio.
