  2. Nitrogen trifluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_trifluoride

    Nitrogen trifluoride is the inorganic compound with the formula (NF 3). It is a colorless, non-flammable, toxic gas with a slightly musty odor. In contrast with ...

  3. Intermolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intermolecular_force

    The attractive force draws molecules closer together and gives a real gas a tendency to occupy a smaller volume than an ideal gas. Which interaction is more important depends on temperature and pressure (see compressibility factor). In a gas, the distances between molecules are generally large, so intermolecular forces have only a small effect.

  4. Nitrogen fluoride - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Nitrogen_fluoride

    Nitrogen fluorides are compounds of chemical elements nitrogen and fluorine. Many different nitrogen fluorides are known: ... Nitrogen trifluoride, NF 3; Nitrogen ...

  5. London dispersion force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/London_dispersion_force

    Interaction energy of an argon dimer.The long-range section is due to London dispersion forces. 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 ...

  6. Compressibility factor - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Compressibility_factor

    Deviations of the compressibility factor, Z, from unity are due to attractive and repulsive intermolecular forces. At a given temperature and pressure, repulsive forces tend to make the volume larger than for an ideal gas; when these forces dominate Z is greater than unity. When attractive forces dominate, Z is less than unity.

  7. Molecular mechanics - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_mechanics

    A force field is used to minimize the bond stretching energy of this ethane molecule. Molecular mechanics uses classical mechanics to model molecular systems. The Born–Oppenheimer approximation is assumed valid and the potential energy of all systems is calculated as a function of the nuclear coordinates using force fields. Molecular ...

  8. Fluorine compounds - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Fluorine_compounds

    Difluoroacetylene, which decomposes even under liquid nitrogen temperatures, [123] is a notable example. If such a molecule is asymmetric, then the more fluorinated carbon is attacked, as it holds positive charge caused by the C–F bonds and is shielded weakly [ 122 ] (similarly to that how unsaturated hydrocarbons attacked by HF add hydrogen ...

  9. Inversion temperature - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Inversion_temperature

    The inversion temperature in thermodynamics and cryogenics is the critical temperature below which a non-ideal gas (all gases in reality) that is expanding at constant enthalpy will experience a temperature decrease, and above which will experience a temperature increase.
