| The
Interatomic Potential
· This diagram shows a generic Interatomic Potential Curve. · This curve is the sum of attractive and repulsive terms. · The potential may be written in the form: V(r) = - ( A/rn) + (B/rm)where A and B are constants that depend on the bonding type. The first term is attractive and the second term repulsive. Also, m > n. Click
