What is Vander-Waal radius?

In chemistry, a van der Waals radius is a measure for the size of an atom that is not chemically (ionically or covalently) bound. In general a van der Waals radius is defined as half the closest distance of two equal, non-covalently bound, atoms. The concept was introduced by Linus Pauling, who extracted the van der Waals radii mainly from lattice spacings in molecular crystals. As an example Pauling quotes a crystal consisting of Cl2-molecules.
