Once molecules become close enough to touch, intermolecular forces become repulsive. This is what prevents one molecule from overlapping another. Intermolecular forces pull molecules together at a long range and hold them apart at short range.
Hydrogen bonds
offsets
There are distant galaxies all around us - in all directions, and at varying distances.
The attractive lady got the man's attention. Gravity is an attractive force exerted by matter and varying with mass and distance.
How does the strength of a magnet affect its ability to attract other objects from varying distances?
accommodation
Lots of places named Portsmouth in this world, with varying distances from the Arctic Circle. Please specify.
People have varying opinons as to what they find attractive on another person. You may be so in love with foreheads because it is especially visually appealing to you.
The part of the eye that becomes thicker and thinner to allow us to see at varying distances is the lens. It changes shape through a process called accommodation, which helps focus light onto the retina for clear vision.
The diverse properties of covalent compounds arise from the varying strengths of the covalent bonds between atoms, different molecular structures, and the types of atoms involved. Factors like bond polarity, molecular shape, and intermolecular forces can all contribute to the wide range of physical and chemical properties exhibited by covalent compounds.
This is because different substances have varying inter molecular forces due to electron distributions. Also the weakest of the attractive forces are found in the gases and the stronger ones are found in the solids.
Different substances have varying intermolecular forces that dictate their phase at room temperature. Substances with strong intermolecular forces, like water, tend to be in a solid or liquid phase at room temperature. In contrast, substances with weaker forces, like gases, are typically in a gaseous phase.
