CCL: Question on calculation of charge center of electrons in a molecule



 Sent to CCL by: Herbert Fruchtl [herbert.fruchtl*_*st-andrews.ac.uk]
 
I don't have time to look at the maths of it, but I think the centre of charge of the electron density should be identical to the centre of the Mulliken charges, which would be easy to calculate (analogous to the centre of mass).

 Dear CCLers,
 I need to calculate the charge center of electrons in a small organic molecule.
 Is there any program that is able to do that?
 Many thanks beforehand.
 Best wishes,
