contents For bound states of atoms and molecules of $N$ electrons we consider the corresponding $K$-particle reduced density matrices, $Γ^{(K)}$, for $1 \le K \le N-1$. Previously, eigenvalue bounds were obtained in the case of $K=1$ and $K=N-1$ by A.V. Sobolev. The purpose of the current work is to obtain bounds in the case of $2 \le K \le N-2$. For such $K$ we label the eigenvalues of the positive, trace class operators $Γ^{(K)}$ by $λ_n(Γ^{(K)})$ for $n=1,2,\dots$, and obtain the bounds $λ_n(Γ^{(K)}) \le Cn^{-α_K}$ for all $n$, where $α_K = 1 + 7/(3L)$ and $L = \min\{K,N-K\}$.
