Molecules are held together in a crystal by (a) hydrogen bond (b) electrostatic attraction (c) Van der Waal’s attraction (d) dipole-dipole attraction
Correct option is D) The atoms in molecular covalent molecules are held together by strong covalent bonds. Although these bonds are strong, there are only weak forces of attraction between molecules. These weak attractive forces are called van der Waal’s forces and can be broken with little energy.
