Single Point Energy Calculations

a prediction of the energy and related properties of a molecule AT A SPECIFIC GEOMETRY (bond length and bond angle)
primarily done with ab initio methods
used to:
obtain BASIC information about a molecule
check feasibility of a geometry (used to optimize geometries or compare)
compute very accurate energies for a specific geometry
