Verified step by step guidance1
Understand that intermolecular forces are forces that occur between molecules, affecting properties like boiling and melting points.
Recognize that covalent bonding and ionic bonding are types of intramolecular forces, meaning they hold atoms together within a molecule or compound.
Note that nuclear force is a fundamental force acting within the nucleus of an atom, not between molecules.
Identify hydrogen bonding as a specific type of intermolecular force that occurs when hydrogen is bonded to highly electronegative atoms like oxygen, nitrogen, or fluorine.
Conclude that among the options given, hydrogen bonding is the correct term that describes an intermolecular force.
