What is the difference between a bond and an intermolecular interaction?

A bond involves the swapping of electrons, transfer, etc, like a covalent or ionic bond.

An intermolecular interaction isn't necessarily a bond, but rather a charge that keeps atoms near each other. For example, a glass can swell at the top without overflowing or you can have a meniscus in your graduated cylinder because water sticks to the sides. These are intermolecular interactions, not bonds. An example are London Dispersion Forces. These are intermolecular interactions that control the melting and boiling temperatures of compounds.

Think, if molecules didn't interact with each other, what's holding them together? Why don't they just fly off? Because they interact with each other, we have the states of matter! We need so much heat to give them energy, just so that their own motion can break these forces and cause them to change state. 

also i haven't taken chemistry so idk what im doing oops

Explain how creativity can play a role in the construction of scientific questions and hypotheses.
sweet-ann [11.9K]
Scientific questions and hypotheses come up frequently while one is engaged in investigating a scientific phenomenon such  as natural geological phenomena as may occur in geological mapping in the field. For example, there may be a question does this canyon or deeply incised valley which is quite straight follow a weakness in the earth's crust like a major fault or the direction of bedding in well bedded sedimentary rocks. In a particular topographic area, some hypotheses which may be developed is that valleys follow geological structure whereas ridges follow resistant rocks like quartzites or quartz sandstones or in the ocean, points or capes may represent resistant quartz sandstones and bays may represent weak soft shales recessively weathering

This thermogram shows a person using a computer. Complete the sentence to describe the flow of thermal energy between the person
sergejj [24]
<h2>Answer : The thermal energy will flow from the computer to the person.</h2><h3>Explanation :</h3>

Usually computer are such devices which converts electrical energy into thermal energy and then it gets transferred to the person. The energy flows from the higher amount to lower amount. In this case, computer is producing higher thermal energy than the person that's the reason for the flow of energy from computer to the person.
