What are the forces between water molecules that hold them together in the solid and liquid state called?

Hydrogen bonding.
Hydrogen bonding is a dipole-dipole interaction in which a hydrogen atom bonded to a highly electronegative atom (either O, N, or F) develops a partial positive charge. This partial positive charge allows the formation of a weak bond with another electronegative atom (again, either O, N, or F).

What type of forces hold subatomic forces together?
between molecules the forces are called intermolecular forces, and between the atoms in a molecule they are called inramolecular forces
When the molecules in matter are held very tightly together by forces between them the matter is?
slolid
In steam are the forces between molecules the same as the forces between the molecules in water?
No, they are not. The forces between molecules in steam are not as strong as those present in liquid water.
Attractions between water molecules are called?
"van der waals" forces.
What holds molecules of compounds together?
Within the molecule, covalent bonds hold them together. Between the molecules there can be several different forces. There are dipole-dipole attractions, hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. Which of them apply in a particular substance depends on the structure of the molecules.

What are forces between molecules in a solid called?
all such forces are intermolecular forces.
What are the strong forces of attraction called between the positive and negative regions of molecules called?
The strong forces of attraction between the positive and negative regions of molecules are called electrostatic forces or electrostatic interactions.
What kind of bonds exist between Hexane molecules?
There are no bonds between hexane molecules. There are intermolecular forces, called London Dispersion Forces which attract other hexane molecules.
When the molecules in matter are held very tightly together by forces between them the matter is?
slolid
When slight attractions that develop between oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules are called?
When molecules are close together, a slight attraction can develop between the oppositely charged regions of nearby molecules. Chemists call such intermolecular forces of attraction van der Waals forces. (This also occurs in the phenomenon known as Hydrogen-bonding.) What is the alternate of a slight attraction - it is called the covalent bond. Note that an ionic bond is a type of covalent bond.
In steam are the forces between molecules the same as the forces between the molecules in water?
No, they are not. The forces between molecules in steam are not as strong as those present in liquid water.
Attractions between water molecules are called?
"van der waals" forces.
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.
What is the predominant force between IBr molecules in liquid IBr?
The predominant force between IBr molecules in liquid IBr is Van der Waals forces, specifically dipole-dipole interactions and London dispersion forces. These forces are responsible for holding the IBr molecules together in the liquid state.
What holds molecules of compounds together?
Within the molecule, covalent bonds hold them together. Between the molecules there can be several different forces. There are dipole-dipole attractions, hydrogen bonds and van der Waals forces. Which of them apply in a particular substance depends on the structure of the molecules.
What do dipole dipole forces do?
Hold polar molecules together
