Save guides, add subjects and pick up where you left off with your BBC account. Isomers are compounds with the same molecular formulae but different structural formulae. They have the same number ...

If you take two objects with fairly smooth surfaces, and put these together, you would not expect them to stick together. At least not without a liberal amount of adhesive, water or some other ...

Carbon chemistry involves many different families ... of different compounds caused by functional groups and intermolecular forces is important. A common carboxylic acid is ethanoic acid, vinegar.

Johnson at Yale University discusses how the two sides of physical chemistry have necessarily ... the covalent chemical bond and more subtle intermolecular forces. In light of the long list ...

Structure and bonding are at the core of the discipline, especially inorganic chemistry, whereas using weaker intermolecular forces to assemble supermolecules is a field with much still to explore.

As the field of surface science and nanotechnology continues to advance, the Surface Force Apparatus will remain an indispensable tool for unraveling the mysteries of intermolecular forces and ...
