Why are molecules closer when its a solid?

molecules that start closing together turn into solid example: think of water, when molecules are loose the water is liquid but when the molecules are packed together the water turns into ice


What type of interactions hold the molecules together in a polar molecular solid?

Within the molecule it is the covalent bonds which hold the atoms together. The facts that the molecule is polar or that the substance is in the solid state are irrelevant. If you were trying to ask what holds the molecules together to make the solid, then it is dipole-dipole forces and van der Waals forces.
