Does Maxwell Boltzmann hold for liquids? In the case of gases it does quite well for calculating the velocity distribution given a temperature. However, when the molecules are closer together in the case of liquids, how do the van der waals force and others effect the velocity distribution.
What are the limitations on the maxwell distribution? What can be done for the case of liquid water? liquid benzene, toluene?
Thanks in advance.
