Molecular Solid
A molecular solid is a solid consisting of discrete molecules. The cohesive forces that bind the molecules together are van der Waals forces, Dipole, dipole–dipole interactions, Quadrupole, quadrupole interactions, Pi interaction, π–π interactions, hydrogen bonding, halogen bonding, London dispersion forces, and in some molecular solids, Coulomb's law, coulombic interactions. Van der Waals, dipole interactions, quadrupole interactions, π–π interactions, hydrogen bonding, and halogen bonding (2–127 Joule, kJ Mole (unit), mol−1) are typically much weaker than the forces holding together other solids: metallic (metallic bonding, 400–500 kJ mol−1), Ionic compound, ionic (Coulomb's law, Coulomb’s forces, 700–900 kJ mol−1), and Network covalent bonding, network solids (covalent bonds, 150–900 kJ mol−1). Intermolecular interactions typically do not involve delocalized electrons, unlike metallic and certain covalent bonds. Exceptions are charge-transfer complex ...

Carbon Dioxide And Caffeine
Carbon () is a chemical element; it has chemical symbol, symbol C and atomic number 6. It is nonmetallic and tetravalence, tetravalent—meaning that its atoms are able to form up to four covalent bonds due to its valence shell exhibiting 4 electrons. It belongs to group 14 of the periodic table. Carbon makes up about 0.025 percent of Earth's crust. Three Isotopes of carbon, isotopes occur naturally, carbon-12, C and carbon-13, C being stable, while carbon-14, C is a radionuclide, decaying with a half-life of 5,700 years. Carbon is one of the timeline of chemical element discoveries#Pre-modern and early modern discoveries, few elements known since antiquity. Carbon is the 15th abundance of elements in Earth's crust, most abundant element in the Earth's crust, and the abundance of the chemical elements, fourth most abundant element in the universe by mass after hydrogen, helium, and oxygen. Carbon's abundance, its unique diversity of organic compounds, and its unusual abi ...
