Recapitulate of chemical interaction
Four types of chemical interactions have been explained.
1.Van der Waals
2.Hydrogen bonds
3.Ionic interactions
4.Hydrophobic interaction
Comparing the strengths:
hydrophobic (varies)>hydrogen bonds~ionic interactions>Van der Waals
Distance (nm) for each bond type
1.Van der Waals -- 3-6 angstrom
2.Hydrogen bonds -- 3 angstrom (hydrogen vs strong electro negativity -- N,O)
3.Ionic interactions -- 2.5 angstrom
4.Hydrophobic interaction -- varies
