The force that HOLDS atoms and molecules together is electromagnetic(mostly
electric, but magnetic does plays a part). The negatively charged electrons
and positively charged atomic nuclei interact through the electromagnetic
force to stick together. There is more to it than "Coulomb's Law".
Electromagnetic force on the scale of atoms is more complex than on the
scale of charged balls. To discuss all details requires quantum physics.
Still, it is the electromagnetic force. Some atoms hold together very
tightly, forming solids. Less tight electromagnetic bonds result in liquid
or gas.
As for what BRINGS the atoms together, there are a variety of possibilities.
In a biological situation, it is very often the work of proteins. These are
biological "workhorses" that have individual tasks for which they are
created. It may be to place a certain atom in the wall of a cell. It may
be to bend one molecule into another shape, allowing it to become a
different molecule. Often digestion plays a role. You drink a glass of
milk. A calcium atom is digested. Proteins then place the atom in your
bone to heal a broken arm.
When you get to the level of outer space, the driving force is gravity. A
meteor is pulled to a planet by gravity. The meteor burns up passing
through the atmosphere. The atoms that were part of the meteor are now part
of the planet. There are many ways to bring atoms together, but they all
use electromagnetic force to stay together as molecules.
it depends on what type of compound it is it can be electromagnetical gravitional ect
The atoms of a molecule are held together by forces of attraction called intermolecular forces. Three types of intermolecular forces are ionic, covalent and metallic.
No, they do not hold two compounds together. The forces that hold compounds together are intermolecular forces. Ionic and covalent bonds are intramolecular forces, and they hold the atoms of the molecule or formula unit together.
The force responsible for combine atoms together in a compound is chemical bonding.
between molecules the forces are called intermolecular forces, and between the atoms in a molecule they are called inramolecular forces
It not really a force, atoms are made up of protons, neutrons and electrons. The outside bit of atoms is the electrons bit which is fuzzy and when the atoms touch each other the fuzzy bits sort of join together. The weak nuclear force holds atoms together in a compound and the strong nuclear force holds atomic particles together within the atom. They are called Electromagnetic forces.
The force of attraction that holds two atoms together is called a(n) chemical bond
No, they do not hold two compounds together. The forces that hold compounds together are intermolecular forces. Ionic and covalent bonds are intramolecular forces, and they hold the atoms of the molecule or formula unit together.
Charged atoms, called ions, form ionic compounds when they combine chemically with one another.
The force responsible for combine atoms together in a compound is chemical bonding.
Atoms, compounds are two or more atoms bonded together
between molecules the forces are called intermolecular forces, and between the atoms in a molecule they are called inramolecular forces
The atoms in compounds are held together by chemical bonds
Atoms of different elements can " stick together " ( making compounds ) via elements sharing or trading arrangements called

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.
Atoms in compounds can be held together in a few ways, including both polar and non-polar covalent, ionic, coordinate, and a few others. These bonds are called INTRAMOLECULAR bonds, meaning that they are the bonds that hold individual atoms together in a compound, or molecule. ELECTRICAL FORCES HOLD ATOMS TOGETHER; ex. an atom's tendency to have a full valence shell. The atoms share their valence electrons, causing an electric attraction to occur between the atoms, forming what we call a chemical or atomic bond.Atoms and molecules (groups of atoms) attract via electromagnetic forces. Atoms consist of Electrons, Protons (which have positive and negative charge respectively) and Neutrons (which gives the atom mass).The movement of electrons within the atoms and molecules causes a charge. These charges are called electromagnetic forces. Two atoms or molecules which have opposite charges will attract each other and bond during a chemical reaction.
The force of attraction that holds two atoms together is called a(n) chemical bond
Atoms can fuse together to form molecules or compounds.
