Hi there,
we are calculating atomic charges for hexachloroethane using the resp
strategy, but we end up with positive charges at the chlorine atoms. Does
anyone have a clue to what the atomic charges should be? Our guess is that
they should be slightly negative. Any suggestions will be appreciated.

Best regards,
        Bjorn
