Shifts of the binding energies of x-ray-photoelectron core levels are observed in the Bi{sub 2}Sr{sub 2}Ca{sub 1{minus}{ital x}}Y{sub {ital x}}Cu{sub 2}O{sub {ital y}} system when {ital x} is varied. It is pointed out that this is due to the change in the chemical environment associated with the changes of the interatomic distances. We show that the so-called bond-valence-sum calculation is useful for the explanation of the shift; and propose that this method is generally applicable in explaining or predicting the shift of core levels in any system with a variable composition.
