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.
