Nature of Molecules and Intermolecular Interactions
by Adam Le Gresley, PhD, Georgina Cornwall, PhDThis course covers the material of content category 5B of the official MCAT exam content outline.
In the natural world, atoms of different elements bind to each other, via bonds of different types, to create larger and more-complex structures: compounds and/or molecules. The plausibility of atoms bonding depends on their chemical properties, and the compounds they make up will acquire such properties, or new ones, depending on the changes that occur during the bonding process. These properties go on to determine how the new compound or molecule will interact with others and the environment.
In this course, the student will be given a walkthrough of the characteristics of molecules and their interactions. For optimal comprehension, the student is expected to have a college-level understanding of chemistry and physics.
