TL;DR: In this paper, the authors extended the definitions of valencies of atoms, molecules, and molecular orbitals to configuration interaction (CI) wave functions and calculated valencies both at equilibrium and nonequilibrium geometries of molecules.
Abstract: Earlier definitions of valencies of atoms, molecules, and molecular orbitals are extended to configuration interaction (CI) wave functions. Using these definitions, valencies both at equilibrium and nonequilibrium geometries of molecules are calculated at the CI level and compared with non-CI results. CI valency correlation diagrams are obtained. Valency variation with bond length using correlated wave functions is found to behave properly unlike in the case of SCF wave functions.

TL;DR: In this article, the decomposition of nitrous oxide on pure and doped cupric oxide with ions of lower and higher valency was studied in detail, and it was shown that the building-in of ions of higher valencies increased to a marked extent the activation energy, whereas the incorporation of lower valency ions decreased activation energy to a lesser extent.
