Abstract
Dimensions, shape and polarizability of a weak-polar molecule and a sp ace occupied by it in different molecular coordinate systems have been calculated. For various substances, the dependence of the clearing te mperature on a shape of excluded volume is considered. The realistic v alues of molecular ionization potential are obtained from clearing tem perature data according to Maier-Saupe theory.
