All chemical bonds, including those found in network solids, derive from the electromagnetic force. Positively charged protons attract negatively charged electrons. Although atoms start off with an equal number of protons and electrons, and are therefore electrically neutral, the electrons rearrange themselves in ways that create attractions between atoms.

What is the part of vegetation that helps hold soil together?
Roots help hold soil together.
Which of these compounds has highest boiling point c3h8 c8h18 c12h26 c16h34?
Viscosity is proportional to the strength of intermolecular forces holding molecules together. Each of these molecules is non-polar, so the only intermolecular forces they have to hold each other together are dispersion forces (temporary dipole-dipole interactions caused by shifting electron clouds). The strength of dispersion forces depend on how easily the electron clouds shift. Molecules with more electrons have bigger electron clouds that are more likely to shift. Therefore, they are going to have the strongest intermolecular forces. So C16H34 should be the most viscous.
What is the ability of a mineral to hold together?
tenacity
What is it called when a mineral acts like glue to hold sediments together?
It is called cementation when a mineral acts like glue to hold sediments together.
Type of bonds that hold sugar and phosphates together?
Covalent bonds
What forces hold ionic solids together?
Ionic bonds
What forces hold molecular together?
London dispersion forces (also known as van der Waals forces) hold molecular solids together. or Intermolecular forces
What force holds molecular solids together?

What forces hold molecular solids?
There are different forces that are associated with solids. The main ones are normal forces and ionic bonds which hold together ionic solids.
Do ionic or covalent hold two compounds together?
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.
What forces hold network forces together?
All chemical bonds, including those found in network solids, derive from the electromagnetic force. Positively charged protons attract negatively charged electrons. Although atoms start off with an equal number of protons and electrons, and are therefore electrically neutral, the electrons rearrange themselves in ways that create attractions between atoms.

What is an fact about solids?
A solid can hold its shape because the molecules hold together and vibrate in place.
What do dipole dipole forces do?
Hold polar molecules together
What form of matter would exsit if cohensive forces did not exist?
Cohesive forces, or intermolecular attractions, hold liquids and solids together. Without intermolecular attractions, only gases could exist. (And plasmas too, but that's not the point of this question.)
