(This article belongs to the Special Issue Nitrogen-Rich Salts)
The computed electrostatic potentials on C,H,N,O molecular solids and nitrogen-rich C,H,N,O salts are used in analyzing and comparing intralattice attractive forces and crystal densities in these two categories of compounds. Nitrogen-rich C,H,N,O salts are not an assured path to high densities. To increase the likelihood of high densities, small cations and large anions are suggested. Caution is recommended in predicting benefits of nitrogen-richness for explosive compounds.
