Question
Chapter 10, Problem 10.25QP
Interpretation Introduction
Interpretation: A potential energy curve for the bond formation in
Concept Introduction:
Potential energy curve:
The potential energy curve describes the potential energy surface through two co-ordinates such as inter- atomic distance and potential energy between two any atoms in the formation of a molecule.
Potential energy surface is the mathematical function in which the energy of a molecule will act as the function of its geometry. So, it is an energy function which can be stretched or bent.
