repulsion:
short-range interaction
seperation distance
At equilibrium, F = 0, i.e.,

Types of bonding
All types of bonding are the results of the long-range attraction and
short-range repulsion.
Main types are:
Ionic
strong
non-directional
Covalent
strong
directional
Metallic
varying
non-directional
Van de Waals
weak
