Chapter 2 ATOMIC STRUCTURE AND INTERATOMIC BONDING INTERATOMIC BONDS Comparison of Different Atomic Bonds INTERATOMIC BONDS (1) INTERATOMIC BONDS (2)

FA – attractive force is defined by the nature of the bond (e.g. Coulomb force for the ionic bonding)

FR – atomic repulsive force, when electron shells start to overlap

Thus the net force FN (r) = FA + FR

In equilibrium: FN (r0) = FA + FR =0 Let us consider the same conditions B but in the term of potential energy, E. E R  r n By definition: E   Fdr r r r E  F dr  F dr  F dr E  E N  N  A  R A R    dE if F  0 N  0  E has extremum N dr N

. Expansion coefficient and melting point Engineering materials – the same dependence PROPERTIES FROM BONDING: TM

• Melting Temperature, Tm The melting point of a solid is the temperature at which it changes state from solid to liquid at atmospheric pressure. Energy (r) At the melting point the solid and liquid phase exist in equilibrium.

The Lindemann criterion states that melting is expected when the root mean square vibration amplitude exceeds a threshold value. Assuming that all atoms in a crystal vibrate with the same frequency ν, r the average thermal energy can be estimated using the equipartition theorem: o r where m is the atomic mass, ν is the frequency, u is the average vibration

amplitude, kB is the Boltzmann constant, and T is the absolute temperature smaller Tm If the threshold value of u2 is c2a2 where c is the Lindemann constant and a is the atomic spacing, then the melting point is estimated as larger T m

Tm is larger if Uo is larger *DNA melting temperature

The Tm is defined as the temperature in degrees Celsius, at which 50% of all molecules of a given DNA sequence are hybridized into a double strand and 50% are present as single strands. Note that ‘melting’ in this sense is not a change of aggregate state, but simply the dissociation of the two molecules of the DNA double helix. Relationships between properties
