Relation of Thermodynamic Parameters with Intermolecular Forces

5 Relation of Thermodynamic Parameters with Intermolecular Forces 

There is a need to find out the relationship between molecular pair potentials and thermodynamic energy functions, because all macroscopic bulk and surface properties arise from molecular interactions. For example, adsorption occurs when a molecule loses sufficient energy to the atoms in a surface by exciting them vibrationally, electrostatically or
