Example Sentences

The packing coefficient, PC, of a given predicted crystal structure was evaluated as the ratio between the gas-phase molecular volume, Vg, and the crystal volume per molecule, Vc:

From Nature

Connolly molecular volumes at DFT equilibrium geometries were used as the gas-phase molecular volume, Vg, and calculated using Materials Studio34.

From Nature

A more accurate comparison is, however, given by the “topic axes,” which are calculated from the axial ratios and the molecular volume; they express the relative distances apart of the crystal molecules in the axial directions.

In the first place, it has appeared that a host of chemical as well as of physical facts are coördinated by the assumption that all substances in the state of gas have the same molecular volume, or, in other words, contain the same number of molecules in a given space; and in the second place, it has become evident that the phenomena of heat are simply the manifestations of molecular motion.

From Project Gutenberg

In practice it is generally more convenient to determine the density, the molecular volume being then obtained by dividing the molecular weight of the substance by the density.
