you can't for an atom. im guessing you mean a molecule :).
Covalent bonds can be classified as intramolecular forces.
Intramolecular attraction forces between atoms.
The intramolecular hydrogen bonding can be determined by
Intramolecular H-bonding is hydrogen bonding that happens within one molecule. Hydrogen bonding is a very polar bond between a hydrogen atom and a highly electronegative atom, such as N, O, or F. If the solute is placed in a polar solvent, it will be very soluble, because it itself is polar. If the solute is placed in a nonpolar solvent it will not be very soluble.
The forces are the electrostatic forces of attraction between the nucleus of one atom and the electrons of the other atom.
Covalent bonds can be classified as intramolecular forces.
intramolecular force
intramolecular forces are hard to break as compared to intermolecular forces.
An intramolecular force is any force that holds together the atoms making up a molecule or compound. There are three main types of intramolecular forces: - Ionic -Covalent - Metallic Ionic Intramolecular forces These forces exist between atoms of ionic compounds (molecules formed by transfer of electrons). It is the force of attraction between the cation (positively charged atom) and anion (negatively charged atom) in a molecule. Covalent intramolecular forces These forces exist between covalent compounds (molecules formed by sharing of electrons). It is the force of attraction between the bonded pair od electrons with the nucleii of the the two atoms
covalent bonds
The atom is not controlled by a 'higher system', per se. The way a atom behaves and interacts is due to its intramolecular (within the molecule) and intermolecular (with the molecules around it) forces, as well as the inherent properties of the elements, and the sub-components of the atom.
Intramolecular forces are not intermolecular forces !
intermolecular force
Intermolecular forces are based on electrostatic attraction and/or polarisation phenomena. Intramolecular bonds involve covalent bonds, polar or non-polar.
Simple molecular; covalently bonded intramolecular forces.
Intermolecular forces are the forces between molecules which hold two or more of them together; intramolecular forces happen inside of the molecule, & are the forces holding the atoms together witch form the molecule.
intramolecular force not intermolecular force (I got it right on a test)
