Abstract
Abstract This chapter discusses conflict between the random motions of constituent particles of matter and the forces which tend to order them into structures. Topics covered include mass and energy, nuclear stability, atom building, molecules, quantum-mechanical theory of covalency, descriptions of molecules by wave functions, and calculations on molecules by the variation method.
