There are two such forces:
1) The electrical force occurs between two charged objects. When this force occurs between to point like objects, the following equation holds:
F=Kq1q2/d^2, where
F is the electric force
K is a constant = 8.988*10^9
q1 is the charge of one object
q2 is the charge of the second object
d is the distance between the objects
2) The gravitational force occurs between two masses. If these two objects are point like the following equation holds:
F=Gmm/d^2, where
F is the gravitational force
G is a constant = 6.673*10^-11
m1 is the mass of one object
m2 is the mass of the second object
d is the distance between the objects
you may notice two things about these fundamental forces:
1) The electrical force is much stronger that the gravitational force. This is why the force of gravity is neglected when dealing with electric forces between subatomic particles, ions, and molecules.
2) These two forces are very analogous. both forces are proportional to the product of a property of two objects (mass or charge) and to the inverse of the square of the distance between those particles.
A force of attraction between two atoms
It is an electrical attraction.
a chemical bond
Chemical bond is the force that hold two atoms together
The attraction between two objects is called force of attraction or gravitational force.
The invisible force of attraction between two atoms is primarily due to electromagnetic interactions, specifically the attraction between positively charged protons in the nucleus of one atom and negatively charged electrons in another. This force is responsible for the formation of chemical bonds, such as ionic and covalent bonds, which hold atoms together to create molecules. Additionally, van der Waals forces and hydrogen bonds can contribute to the attraction between atoms in different contexts.
The force of attraction between the nuclei of atoms and the shared electron is called covalent bonding. This type of bonding involves the sharing of electrons between atoms to achieve a stable electron configuration.
a force that holds atoms together
It is the force of attraction that holds 2 two atoms together which causes a rearangement of electrons between them.
Yes, the force of attraction that holds atoms together is called a chemical bond. Chemical bonds are formed as a result of interactions between electrons of different atoms, leading to the formation of molecules or compounds.
A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. The bond is caused by the electromagnetic force attraction between opposite charges, either between electrons and nuclei, or as the result of a dipole attraction (it is best not to continue and list all different physics dipoles).
Atoms are not held togetherinternally by covalent attraction, but instead by the so-called "strong force" of quantum theory. However, two or more atoms can be held together in molecules by covalent attraction.
