All molecular attractions are electrostatic in nature. Electrons are attracted to protons, and various combinations of electrons and protons can be attracted to other combinations of electrons and protons.

The molecules attract one another, via electric forces.


What are the forces that attract the molecules of a liquid to a different compound usually a solid are called?

These forces are called adhesion forces.


Why water is in liquid state not in gas state?

Other substances with molecules of a similar state are indeed in a gaseous state, at room temperature. It seems that water is liquid, at room temperature, because of its large electric dipole, which causes molecules to attract each other more than is usual for molecules of that size.Other substances with molecules of a similar state are indeed in a gaseous state, at room temperature.

How does a liquid evaporates?

The particles inside the liquid absorb heat from their surroundings, causing them to gain enough energy to break the intermolecular bonds that attract them to other liquid molecules and become gaseous.it goes in the air.


Four states of matter?

the four states of matter are a solid, liquid ,gas, and plasma the molecules in a solid are tightly packed together in a liquid they take the shape of its container a gas the molecules move freely and in plasma the molecules attract each other positive and negative


What does the free movement of molecules of liquid makes them?

because as the particles met they are wet


Why a liquid is less viscous at high temperature?

When the liquid is at high temperature, the molecules of liquid have more energy & spread further apart. This enables the molecules to move around much more in the liquid which makes it less viscous or fluid.


To change liquid to a soild?

To change a solid to a liquid you need to add energy. The energy makes the molecules vibrate faster and they find it easier to break bonds holding them to the molecules directly next to them and form new bonds to other molecules.


Is washing up liquid an acid or an alkali?

Washing up liquid is slightly alkaline. It helps to cut through grease and oil because the alkaline molecules in the soap attract the fatty molecules in these substances, making them easier to wash away with water.


Water molecules attract nonpolar molecules such as oil?

yes


What happens to a fluid when it heats?

When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules. When the liquid molecules are heated, they move faster so the liquid boils and some molecules becomes gas molecules.


What makes liquid to be solid?

Molecules in liquids move in a random pattern relative to one another because of the intermolecular forces are too weak to hold the atoms or molecules in a solid form. When cooling, the molecules lose their energy and they move slower. As the intermolecular forces of attraction become stronger molecules come closer to each other and are held together as a solid. Forces that attract molecules to other molecules are covalent bonding, hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole attraction, and london dispersion forces. Covalent bonds are usually the strongest.
