Yes, but I just wanted to comment on the original post of Nam Tran
because it seemed me the beginning of the thread.

He mentioned that the total system is neutral.
So there must be a weak dipole moment between the slab and the molecule.

In this case, the adsorption energy must be calculated 
with help of the dipole correction.
