4) The following function is often used to describe the intermolecular interactions due to dispersion forces o U(r) = 4€ (6)* -0)] = where ε and o are constants and r is the distance between two interacting molecules. a) Find the force given by U(r) as a function of r. b) What is U(r) when r goes to infinity (or when it becomes very large)? Explain why your answer makes physical sense. c) Find r at which U(r) is smallest.
