What is the attraction between a positively charged atom and a negatively charged atom within the same molecule?

It's called dipole interaction. A dipole is a polar molecule, or one with a positive end and a negative end (due to different numbers of unpaired electrons.) When a bunch of dipoles get together, the whole "opposites attract" thing happens, and the positive end of one molecules says "how ya doin'" to the negative end of another molecule. Multiplied over billions and billions of times, and it becomes a measurable force within a substance which can explain certain physical properties of that substance.

What is the coordinate bonding and what is the difference between it and the covalent bonding?
Covalent bonding involves two or more atoms sharing electrons. Coordinate covalent bonding is just an attraction that molecules have for other molecules based on the asymmetrical distribution of electrons in those molecules, creating negatively charged and positively charged regions (and hence, an attraction between the negatively charged regions of one molecule and the positively charged regions of another molecule).
What is an electrical attraction between positively and negatively charged ions in a n ionic compound?
Ionic bond
How do elements interact in ionic bonds?
By the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and negatively charged anions.
An ionic bond is an electrostatic?
An ionic bond is an electrostatic force of attraction between two ions out of which one is positively charged and other is negatively charged.
Why ions remain together in a compound?
The ions stay together because of the electrostatic force of attraction between the positively charged cations and the negatively charged anions.
Between what do ionic bonds form?
it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion it's a simultanious attraction between a positively charged ion and a negatively charged ion
What is an electrical attraction between positively and negatively charged ions?
Ionic bond which is an electrostatic force of attraction.
In an ionic bond there is a force of attraction between what?
There is always an attraction between positively (P+) and negatively (N-) charged ions.

There will be a force of attraction between them.
Is metallic bonding an attraction of positive and negative ions?
Metallic bonding is the attraction between positively charged metal ions and free (negatively charged) electrons.
