van der waals forces
101Gecko — This article is about the type of animal. For other uses, see Gecko (disambiguation). Gecko Temporal range: 50 Ma Recent, putatively as early as 110 Ma[1] …
102Intermolecular force — Intermolecular forces (forces between two molecules) are weak compared to the intramolecular forces (forces keeping a molecule together). For example, the covalent bond present within HCl molecules is much stronger than the forces present between …
103Alkane — Not to be confused with Alkene or Alkyne. Chemical structure of methane, the simplest alkane Alkanes (also known as paraffins or saturated hydrocarbons) are chemical compounds that consist only of hydrogen and carbon atoms and are bonded… …
104Dilatant — A dilatant (also termed shear thickening) material is one in which viscosity increases with the rate of shear strain. Such a shear thickening fluid, also known by the acronym STF, is an example of a non Newtonian fluid. Comparison of the behavior …
105chemical bonding — ▪ chemistry Introduction any of the interactions that account for the association of atoms into molecules, ions, crystals, and other stable species that make up the familiar substances of the everyday world. When atoms approach one another …
106Hamaker constant — The Hamaker constant A can be defined for a van der Waals (vdW) body body interaction::A=pi^2 imes C imes ho 1 imes ho 2where ho 1 and ho 2 are the number of atoms per unit volume in two interacting bodies and C is the coefficient in the particle …
107Carbon nanotube — Not to be confused with Carbon fiber. Part of a series of articles on Nanomaterials Fullerenes …
108Nuclear force — This article is about the force that holds nucleons together in a nucleus. For the force that holds quarks together in a nucleon, see Strong interaction. A Feynman diagram of a strong proton neutron interaction mediated by a neutral pion. Time… …
109Noncovalent bonding — A noncovalent bond is a type of chemical bond, typically between macromolecules, that does not involve the sharing of pairs of electrons, but rather involves more dispersed variations of electromagnetic interactions. The noncovalent bond is the… …
110Molecular modelling — The backbone dihedral angles are included in the molecular model of a protein. Modelling of ionic li …
