  2. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    The attractive force draws molecules closer together and gives a real gas a tendency to occupy a smaller volume than an ideal gas. Which interaction is more important depends on temperature and pressure (see compressibility factor). In a gas, the distances between molecules are generally large, so intermolecular forces have only a small effect.

  3. Alcohol (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Alcohol_(chemistry)

    The three "R"s stand for carbon substituents or hydrogen atoms. [1] In chemistry, an alcohol (from Arabic al-kuḥl 'the kohl'), [2] is a type of organic compound that carries at least one hydroxyl (−OH) functional group bound to a saturated carbon atom. [3] [4] Alcohols range from the simple, like methanol and ethanol, to complex, like ...

  4. Phase diagram - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Phase_diagram

    The greater the pressure on a given substance, the closer together the molecules of the substance are brought to each other, which increases the effect of the substance's intermolecular forces. Thus, the substance requires a higher temperature for its molecules to have enough energy to break out of the fixed pattern of the solid phase and enter ...

  5. Mie potential - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Mie_potential

    Therefore, the Mie potential is a more flexible intermolecular potential than the simpler Lennard-Jones potential. The Mie potential is used today in many force fields in molecular modeling . Typically, the attractive exponent is chosen to be m = 6 {\textstyle m=6} , whereas the repulsive exponent is used as an adjustable parameter during the ...

  6. Hansen solubility parameter - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hansen_solubility_parameter

    Hansen solubility parameters were developed by Charles M. Hansen in his Ph.D thesis in 1967 [1] [2] as a way of predicting if one material will dissolve in another and form a solution. [3] They are based on the idea that like dissolves like where one molecule is defined as being 'like' another if it bonds to itself in a similar way.

  8. Network covalent bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Network_covalent_bonding

    Melting point: High, since melting means breaking covalent bonds (rather than merely overcoming weaker intermolecular forces). [ 5 ] Solid-phase electrical conductivity : Variable, [ 6 ] depending on the nature of the bonding: network solids in which all electrons are used for sigma bonds (e.g. diamond, quartz) are poor conductors, as there are ...
