Summary
Some features of the present position on theories of the chemical effects of nuclear transformation are briefly reviewed. It is suggested that theories based on the transfer of energy by elastic collisions of recoiling atoms are not adequate to explain many of the experimental observations. Instead it is shown that electronic excitation, the transfer of energy between electrons, and the consequent loss of valency bonding or its rearrangement, are likely to be of primary importance for explaining these effects.
