Potential energies and the number of nearest neighbors in liquid neon, argon, krypton, and xenon are calculated using a continuum approximation and the Lennard–Jones potential energy function. The number of nearest neighbors obtained in this way compare very well to those obtained from the neutron diffraction data. The potential energies are used to calculate the latent heat of fusion for these elements, which are in excellent agreement with the experimental data in all cases.

Consideration of the spherically smoothed mutual potential energy between nearly spherical polyatomic molecules leads to the conclusion that it can often be well represented by a (28,7) type of Lennard-Jones potential. Second and third virial coefficients have been calculated for this potential and also for (∞,6) and (∞,7) potentials. The (28,7) interaction energy gives a good description of the properties of gases of quasi-spherical molecules. For these gases it is markedly superior to the more usual (12,6) potential.
