    Bonding Forces and Energies

    Uploaded by

    Jaden Brown
    As two atoms are brought close together, they initially exert negligible forces on each other from a distance. As they approach, attractive and repulsive forces emerge. When the electron shells overlap strongly, repulsive forces dominate at small distances while attractive forces dominate at larger distances. The bonding energy required to separate two atoms into infinity is equal to the net force between them at their equilibrium separation distance.

    Bonding forces and energies

     Considering the interaction


    between two isolated atoms as
    they are brought into close proximity
    from an infinite separation.
     At larger distance, the interactions
    are negligible.
     As the atoms approach, each exerts
    forces on the other.
    - Attractive
    - Repulsive
     Ultimately, the outer electron shells of
    the two atoms begin to overlap, and a
    strong repulsive forces comes to play.
    Bonding forces and energies
     Bonding holds atoms together to form solid materials
     In solids, atoms are held at preferred distances from each other.
     As atomic atoms are stretched. atoms tend to attract each other, and as the
    bonds are compressed, atoms repel each other.
     The net force between the two atoms is the sum of both attractive and repulsive
    components.

     The repulsive force dominates at small distances, and the attractive force
    dominates at larger distances. At equilibrium, they are equal.
     Bonding energy between two isolated atoms at separation r is related to the force
    by
    Bonding of energy between two atoms
     The interaction energy at equilibrium is called the bonding energy between two
    atoms.
     To break the bond, this energy must be supplied from outside.
     Breaking the bond means that the two atoms become infinitely separated.
     In real materials, containing many atoms, bonding is studied by expressing the
    bonding energy of the entire materials in terms of the separation distances
    between all atoms.
