Assuming you meant 'stay' and not 'say' then the answer would be bonds. Atoms within a molecule are bonded together by either covalent or ionic bonds depending on the difference between their negativities. For instance, NaCl, commonly known as table salt, is an ionic bond while CO2 is a covalent bond. A rule of thumb is that if the two atoms are the same time (IE nonmetal or metal) then they are covalent.

What is the state of matter where the molecules are closest together?
solid phase
How do ice water molecules differ from warm water molecules?
The main difference is that ice water molecules have very low kinetic energy, i.e. they don't move very fast, compared to warm water molecules. The other difference is in the intermolecular forces holding the molecules together. They are greater in ice than in warm water.
How fast does the molecules move for solid?
if we talk about the relative movement of molecules in solids the movement of molecules is slower than liquids and gases because in solids molecules are bound together with relatively stronger forces
Why solids are better transmitter of sound?
Because the molecules are closer together.
When molecules of air are pushed together they form an area of high pressure which is called a?
When molecules of air are pushed together, they form an area of high pressure which is called compression. If the compression is cyclonic, it is called a node.
What do dipole dipole forces do?
Hold polar molecules together
Do molecules of matter don't move in solids?
Molecules vibrate in a solid but they do not move from one place to another. Although these vibrations are small yet they result in a change in the position of molecules. So, we can say that molecules change position in a solid.
Are molecules joined together to form elements?
are molecules are joined together to form elements
Are molecules are joined together to form elements?
are molecules are joined together to form elements
Are Water molecules are held together by ionic bonds?
No, all molecules are held together by covalent bonds.
In which state of matter are the molecules of water bunched together?
Water molecules bunch together in the state of a solid.
Process by which sugar molecules can be bonded together?
Sugar molecules are bonded together by a process called dehydration synthesis.
Are the molecules in coffee bonded?
In any solid the particles have bonds holding the atoms together into molecules, and bonds (or forces) holding the molecules together to form the solid.
Why are molecules closer when its a solid?
molecules that start closing together turn into solid example: think of water, when molecules are loose the water is liquid but when the molecules are packed together the water turns into ice
An ionic bond is the force holding molecules together?
Ionic bonds do not hold molecules together all the time. Covalent bonds can also hold molecules together, so it isn't just ionic bonds that do that.
Which phase of water allows individual water molecules to get closest together?
Water molecules are closest together in the liquid phase.
Are molecules close together in a liquid?
molecules are closer together in a liquid than a gas but further apart than in a solid
