These techniques probe the chemical physics associated with molecular collisions, such as how energy is distributed between translation, vibration, rotation, and electronic modes.
Or might they reside on some old and frigid world, where even molecular collisions occur in extreme slow motion, maybe only a frame a day.
The species M signifies an energetic third body, from which energy is transferred during a molecular collision.
(1) Whole hydration-clusters migrate slowly, baffled as they are by constant molecular collisions around them.
Consequently, more molecular collisions have the energy needed to reach the transition state.
Heat transfer between a low and high temperature gas brought into contact arises due to the exchange of kinetic and potential energy in molecular collisions.
Inelastic scattering is common in molecular collisions.
Microscopically, the flow of heat between two phases is a massive transfer of kinetic energy due to molecular collisions.
The device is imagined as being small enough that the impulse from a single molecular collision can turn the paddle.
Averaged across an entire sample, molecular collisions are elastic.
