[Paroissien]

Bonding and such between molecules is called intermolecular forces.
What is bonding in the actual molecule called, such as covalent and ionic bonds? I can't for the life of me put a name to it

 

[Tommy_Lamp]

I think they are just called Chemical Bonds

 

[Paroissien]

Ok, I can handle that.

 

[jumb]

Depends on the bond/molecule.

 

[DAAVE]

You would assume that the actual bonding would be to electrostatic forces right? Especially in the case of ionic bonding...

 

[Tommy_Lamp]

It most likely is electrostatic, but I think thats leaning more towards Physics.

I have a funny feeling it's intramolecular forces, or I might just be dyslexic

 

[Paroissien]

Intermolecular forces are all you need to say in chemistry
