The interaction potential between 2 particles that generates the desired effect of particles coming together, sticking, and bouncing off if knocked with sufficient energy is given by the Lennard-Jones (LJ) interaction potential. This potential as a function of distance r between any 2 particles is: U(n) = 4e (9)"-09)) (1) Consider a solution of gold nanoparticles of diameter o = 2 nm. Take e 1 eV. Note that 1 eV = 1.6 x 10-19 Joules. 2. At what distance between...

A common approximation to the interatomic forces in a material is the Lennard-Jones potential between neighboring atoms in a solid: U(r) = A/r12 - B/r6 This can be used to find various information about a solid material. Assume that for the lattice of a particular alloy of copper, the Lennard-Jones constants are: A = 2.39 ⨯ 10-133 J·m12 B = 3.19 ⨯ 10-76 J·m6 Find the following: (a) The equilibrium distance between neighboring atoms in the copper lattice (this is...
2. The ε and σ values for Lennard-Jones potential of xenon are found to be 1.77 kJ/mol and 4.10 Å, respectively. The ε and σ values for Lennard-Jones potential of argon are found to be 0.997 kJ/mol and 3.40 A, respectively. Plot the L-J potentials for Xe-Xe and Ar-Ar interactions, which potential has a deeper minimum (i.e. stronger interatomic interactions)? Why?

14-5. Using Eqs. (14-14) and (14-17), calculate the van der Waals constants a and b for nitrogen. For u(r), assume a Lennard-Jones 6-12 potential with ε and σ given in Table 12-3. Compare these calculated values to the experimentally determined values, a 1.39 x 106 cm atm/mole and b-39.1 cm/mole. Such poor agreement is quite typical, simply indi- cating the inadequacy of the van der Waals equation. 14-2 THE VAN DER WAALS EQUATION We start with Eq. (14-3), and take...
