Individual Reactions

(He⁺ • ) +  = (He⁺ • 2)

By formula: (He⁺ • He) + He = (He⁺ • 2He)

Free energy of reaction

(He⁺ • 2) +  = (He⁺ • 3)

By formula: (He⁺ • 2He) + He = (He⁺ • 3He)

Free energy of reaction

(He⁺ • 3) +  = (He⁺ • 4)

By formula: (He⁺ • 3He) + He = (He⁺ • 4He)

(He⁺ • 4) +  = (He⁺ • 5)

By formula: (He⁺ • 4He) + He = (He⁺ • 5He)

He⁺ +  = (He⁺ • )

By formula: He⁺ + He = (He⁺ • He)
