The force which holds the atoms within the molecule is called:
Correct answer: B. Chemical bond
- A. Intermolecular force
- B. Chemical bond
- C. London force
- D. Polar force
Explanation
The force that holds atoms within a molecule together is called a chemical bond. Chemical bonds are the result of the attractive forces between electrons in the outermost energy levels (valence electrons) of atoms.

About Chemical Bonding
Chemical bonding explains molecular shape through VSEPR theory and distinguishes sigma bonds from pi bonds. Questions involve hybridization, bond angles, dipole moment and bond energy, including how electron-pair repulsion determines geometry and how bond polarity differs from the overall polarity of a molecule.
