Weak electrostatic attractions (hydrogen bonds and van der Waals interactions) also stabilize struc- tures, reversibly holding biochemical molecules together
increase in ionic strength of the solution screens out the Couiomb forces thereby making it comparable to the van der Waals interaction
Always basically electrostatic: 4 main types: ionic, covalent, metallic and van der Waals 2 Interatomic Force Models > 2 1 Origins and potentials
These chemical forces include ionic, covalent, metallic, and van der Waals binding, which are briefly but fundamentally described in this chapter Introduction
The three types of intramolecular forces are covalent, ionic, and metallic Van der Waals forces are a category of intermolecular forces that includes
presenting situations for which ionic labels like Au(0) and Au(I) no longer remain useful One must therefore look beyond simple HSAB descriptions in order to
oppositely charged ions Sodium chloride Magnesium oxide Covalent : shared pair of electrons Simple molecular: With intermolecular forces (van der Waals
It is conventional to classify the bonds between atoms into different types as ? Ionic, ? Covalent, ? Metallic, ? Van der Waals, ? Hydrogen
