Question

Similarities and differences between covalent bonds and molecular interactions

Answer 1

Covalent bonds are formed between atoms which have 
- unsatisfied valency 
- no inert gas electronic configuration 
- These are directional bonds 
- formed by sharing of electrons 

Intermolecular forces 
- much weaker than covalent bond 
- These are not directional (except Hydrogen bonds) 
- These are more electrostatic in nature 
- exist between stable molecules 
- can be Hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole and induced dipole-induced dipole
