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.

Is force of attraction that holds atoms together is called chemical bond?

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.


How do atoms bond with other atoms?

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 held together with covalent attraction?

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.
