  2. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    Intermolecular forces are weak relative to intramolecular forces – the forces which hold a molecule together. For example, the covalent bond, involving sharing electron pairs between atoms, is much stronger than the forces present between neighboring molecules. [1]

  3. Gas - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Gas

    Intermolecular forces are experienced by molecules when they are within physical proximity of one another. [20] [21] These forces are very important for properly modeling molecular systems, as to accurately predict the microscopic behavior of molecules in any system, and therefore, are necessary for accurately predicting the physical properties ...

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_dispersion_force

    London dispersion forces (LDF, also known as dispersion forces, London forces, instantaneous dipole–induced dipole forces, fluctuating induced dipole bonds [1] or loosely as van der Waals forces) are a type of intermolecular force acting between atoms and molecules that are normally electrically symmetric; that is, the electrons are ...

  6. Molecular solid - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_solid

    Typically, a molecular solid is ductile when it has isotropic intermolecular interactions. This allows for dislocation between layers of the crystal much like metals. [5] [8] [11] For example, plastic crystals are soft, resemble waxes and are easily deformed. One example of a ductile molecular solid, that can be bent 180°, is hexachlorobenzene ...

  7. Hydrogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Hydrogen_bond

    Most generally, the hydrogen bond can be viewed as a metric-dependent electrostatic scalar field between two or more intermolecular bonds. This is slightly different from the intramolecular bound states of, for example, covalent or ionic bonds.

  8. Intramolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intramolecular_force

    An intramolecular force (from Latin intra-'within') is any force that binds together the atoms making up a molecule. [1] Intramolecular forces are stronger than the intermolecular forces that govern the interactions between molecules.

  9. Adhesion - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Adhesion

    The intermolecular forces responsible for the function of various kinds of stickers and sticky tape fall into the categories of chemical adhesion, dispersive adhesion, and diffusive adhesion. In addition to the cumulative magnitudes of these intermolecular forces, there are also certain emergent mechanical effects.
