Özet
The intermolecular potential energy surface (IPS) in the mixtures of CH4-Kr gases from ab initio calculations has been explored. The ab initio calculation was performed at the second-order MoØller-Plesset perturbation theory (MP2), with the 6-311+G(2df,2pd) basis set, for three relative orientations of two CH4-Kr molecules as a function of CH4-Kr separation distance. In this work, the IPS, U(r), of the CH4-Kr complex has been investigated, where the vertex (V), edge (E) and face (F) of CH4 approaches to Kr have been considered. Then, adjustable parameters of the Lennard-Jones and Buckingham potential energy function are fitted to the ab initio MP2/6-311+G(2df,2pd) interaction energies for three different orientations. Assuming a given set of parameters, we theoretically obtained second virial coefficients for the CH4-Kr system, and compared with the experimental data at different temperatures. Trivial differences can be observed between the experimental and computational results. © 2010 Taylor & Francis.
