Van der Waals Interaction Energy between Two Spherical Bodies

Go Van der Waals interaction energy = (-(Hamaker Coefficient/6))*(((2*Radius of Spherical Body 1*Radius of Spherical Body 2)/((Center-to-center Distance^2)-((Radius of Spherical Body 1+Radius of Spherical Body 2)^2)))+((2*Radius of Spherical Body 1*Radius of Spherical Body 2)/((Center-to-center Distance^2)-((Radius of Spherical Body 1-Radius of Spherical Body 2)^2)))+ln(((Center-to-center Distance^2)-((Radius of Spherical Body 1+Radius of Spherical Body 2)^2))/((Center-to-center Distance^2)-((Radius of Spherical Body 1-Radius of Spherical Body 2)^2))))

Potential Energy in Limit of Closest-Approach

Go Potential Energy In Limit = (-Hamaker Coefficient*Radius of Spherical Body 1*Radius of Spherical Body 2)/((Radius of Spherical Body 1+Radius of Spherical Body 2)*6*Distance Between Surfaces)

Distance between Surfaces given Potential Energy in Limit of Close-Approach

Go Distance Between Surfaces = (-Hamaker Coefficient*Radius of Spherical Body 1*Radius of Spherical Body 2)/((Radius of Spherical Body 1+Radius of Spherical Body 2)*6*Potential Energy)

Radius of Spherical Body 1 given Potential Energy in Limit of Closest-Approach

Go Radius of Spherical Body 1 = 1/((-Hamaker Coefficient/(Potential Energy*6*Distance Between Surfaces))-(1/Radius of Spherical Body 2))

Van Der Waals Pair Potential Formula

Van der Waals pair potential = (0-Coefficient of Particle–Particle Pair Interaction)/(Distance Between Surfaces^6)
ω_r = (0-C)/(r^6)

What are main characteristics of Van der Waals forces?

1) They are weaker than normal covalent and ionic bonds.
2) Van der Waals forces are additive and cannot be saturated.
3) They have no directional characteristic.
4) They are all short-range forces and hence only interactions between the nearest particles need to be considered (instead of all the particles). Van der Waals attraction is greater if the molecules are closer.
5) Van der Waals forces are independent of temperature except for dipole – dipole interactions.
