This depends upon the two atoms that are held together. The generic name is "intermolecular forces", but there are more specific names depending upon the electronegativity difference between the two atoms.

Are molecules?
In Nature, molecules are two or more different element atoms that are joined together using chemical bonds (the forces that hold atoms together). A group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
What forces typically hold nonmetal atoms together within a moecule?
Convalent Bonds (Apex)
What molecules are?
In Nature, molecules are two or more different element atoms that are joined together using chemical bonds (the forces that hold atoms together). A group of atoms bonded together, representing the smallest fundamental unit of a chemical compound that can take part in a chemical reaction.
If atoms energy during a change of state they are pulled together by attractive forces and become more organized.?
During a change of state, the atoms or molecules typically experience an increase in energy which allows them to overcome the attractive forces that hold them together in their current state. This increased energy allows the particles to transition to a new state with greater disorder or randomness.
Is a chemical bond a force or a chemical?
Molecules are composed of two or more atoms linked together. The attractive forces that link these atoms together are called chemical bonds. The same idea is with forces , except on a larger scale. Forces link MOLECULES to MOLECULES. Bonds link ATOMS to ATOMS.
Why are the forces that hold atoms together in molecules stronger than the forces that hold the molecules together in a gas?
Molecules are two or more atoms held together by a covalent bond. This is a very strong bond as it is held together by strong electrostatic charges. All covalent molecules (apart from those held together in a covalent lattice such as Diamond) are bonded to other molecules by Van der Waal forces. Its is these intermolecular bonds that control boiling and melting points. Van der Waals are (in this case) the attractive force between molecules, they are temporary bonds between temporary dipoles and as electrons orbit the nuclei of atoms the position changes. This temporary dipole induces other molecules to form induced dipoles. Strength varies due to shape of molecule (the more "oblong" the greater the strength of the bond) and by size (the greater the size the greater the strength of the bond.)
What is it energy stored in the bonds that hold together the atoms and molecules of all substances is called?
The energy stored in the bonds that hold together atoms and molecules of substances is called chemical potential energy. This energy is released when bonds are broken and new bonds are formed during chemical reactions.
What is something that chemical bonds hold together and always contain atoms of more than one element?
Something that chemical bonds can hold together is....
How do atoms interact with one another?
Atoms interact with one another by combining chemically or by binding together. When two or more atoms combine chemically, molecules are formed. When two or more different atoms bind together to form a molecule, this is referred to as a compound.
What forces typically hold nonmetal atoms together within a molecule?
Covalent bonds
Forces that hold atoms together are called?
They are chemical bonds varying in strength. The strong nuclear force holds atoms together. Electro-static forces hold molecules together. (The positive and negative forces of the electrons and protons create an attraction that keep the atom together.)
In chemistry what is a bond?
A bond is when two or more atoms join in some way: Ionic Bonding - When two charged substances bond with each other and cancel out the charge Covalent Bonding - The sharing of electrons between atoms Metallic Bonding - Electrons in a metal are shared by all atoms There are more but I've only just started chemical bondings
