WHAT DOES INTERMOLECULAR MEAN IN ENGLISH?

Intermolecular force

Intermolecular forces are forces of attraction or repulsion which act between neighboring particles. They are weak compared to the intramolecular forces, the forces which keep a molecule together. For example, the covalent bond present within HCl molecules is much stronger than the forces present between the neighboring molecules, which exist when the molecules are sufficiently close to each other. If a bond has a H atom directly bonded to either O, N, or F- then it is an H-Bond. If it is polar, then it is a dipole; if it is nonpolar, then it is a dispersion force. The investigation of intermolecular forces starts from macroscopic observations which point out the existence and action of forces at molecular level. These observations include non-ideal gas thermodynamic behavior reflected by virial coefficients, vapor pressure, viscosity, superficial tension and adsorption data. The first reference to the nature of microscopic forces is found in Alexis Clairaut's work Theorie de la Figure de la Terre. Other scientists who have contributed to the investigation of microscopic forces include: Laplace, Gauss, Maxwell and Boltzmann.
