Consider the van der Waals bonding in solid argon. The potential energy as a function of interatomic

Question:

Consider the van der Waals bonding in solid argon. The potential energy as a function of interatomic separation can generally be modeled by the Lennard-Jones 6–12 potential energy curve, that is, E(r) ¼ –Ar-6 + Br-12 where A and B are constants. Given that A ¼ 1.037 - 10-77 J-m6 and B ¼ 1.616 - 10-134 J-m12, calculate the bond length and bond energy (in eV) for solid argon.
