Course Overview
This project is a review of the forces present within molecules. Recall that intermolecular forces control the physical properties of a substance, while intramolecular forces control its chemical properties. Such properties include bond energy (heat required to break molecule into individual atoms) and flammability. How does that impact experiments in microgravity?
