Question

Lennard-jones potential diagrams, also called intermolecular potential energy diagrams, illustrate the relationship between the potential energy of a molecule as the distance between the two nuclei changes.
Select all of the true statements regarding Lennard-Jones potential diagrams.

Answer 1

Statement 3, 5 and 6 are true statements regarding Lennard-Jones potential diagrams

What is lennard- jones potential diagrams

• It describes potential energy of interaction between two non-bonding atoms or molecules based on their distance of separation.
• It illustrates the relationship between potential energy of a molecule as the distance between the two nuclei changes.

Statement 3 ,5 and 6 are correct statements

• When attractive forces are greater than repulsive forces, the two nuclei will continue to come closer.
• When attractive forces are smaller than repulsive forces, the two nuclei will continue to go farther.
• Once a balance is found between attractive and repulsive forces, an equilibrium distance called bond length is achieved.
