The dipole moment, total energy, atomic charge, orbital population and orbital energy of four representative combination models of the favorable growth unit Al6（OH）18（H2O）6 of Al（OH）3 crystals precipitating are calculated by ab initio at RHF/STO-3G, RHF/3-21G, RHF/6-31G levels and DFT at RB3LYP/STO-3G, RB3LYP/3-21G, RB3LYP/6-31G levels with Dipole & Sphere solvent model. The effect of various combination models on Van der Waals force is analyzed using dipole moment and molecular radius, and that on chemical bond force is analyzed using total energy, orbital population and orbital energy.
The quantum chemical calculation on four representative combination modes of the favorable growth unit Al6(OH)18(H2O)6 of Al(OH)3 crystals and the single unit were calculated. On the base of the prior investigation, and from the point of view of bond population and net atomic charge, the relationships between the combination mode of the favorable growth unit and the relative intensity of chemical bond of the systems were discussed. The quantum chemistry calculations were performed at RB3LYP/6-31G and RHF/6-31G levels by ab initio and DFT methods respectively. From the point of view of bond population, it can be preliminarily presumed that the interatomic bond force of the system with side-face-combination-B mode is weaker to a certain extent. From the point of view of the net charge, when the combination mode is obverse-face-combination-D, the interatomic bond force will be enhanced.
