Intramolecular force

An intramolecular force is any force that holds together the atoms making up a molecule or compound.

Types of intramolecular force

There are three main types of intramolecular force:

They differ in the magnitude of their bond enthalpies, and thus affect the physical and chemical properties of compounds in different ways. Intramolecular forces are more common and stronger than [{intermolecular forces}].
