Intermolecular force

Intermolecular forces are weak attractive forces between molecules, significantly weaker than chemical bonds. These forces arise from uneven electron distributions and vary in type. They are stronger in solids than in liquids and must be overcome during melting or boiling.

Explain the relationship between the distribution of electrons and intermolecular forces.
