Limitation of Clausius-Mossotti relation??

02 February 2020 1 6K Report

what is the limitation for Clausius-Mossotti relation?? is that applicable for all the crystal structure??. If the material is an organic single crystal, how well this suits for it

Samir G Pandya

Dear Vinay Parol,

Limitations of the Clausius-Mossotti Equation. It is derived based on following assumptions.

Polarization is considered as proportional to the field.

The polarizable molecules are isotropic.

Absence of short-range interaction.

The above mentioned conditions are satisfied with neutral molecules having no constant dipoles (i.e. non-polar). Therefore the above equation is applicable to neutral liquids and specially to gases.

Clausius-Mossotti Equation is not applicable to strong solutions and solids.

I hope the information will help you.

With Best Wishes,

Samir G Pandya
