Intermolecular forces are the attraction between two or more molecules. They are hydrogen bonding, dipole-dipole forces and London dispersion forces. The hydrogen bonding is the strongest of these three forces and happens due to the polarity of the molecules regarding hydrogen atoms. Hydrogen bonding occurs when hydrogen bonds with nitrogen, oxygen and fluorine, and then interacts with another nitrogen, oxygen or fluorine atom. Although these bonds are considered covalent bonds, they are things called polar covalent bonds in which the electrons are shared, but are heavily attracted to one atom than the other. As shown in the diagram on the left (simplified actual phenomenon not drawn to scale), since the electrons in the HObond are pulled closer to the oxygen atom, the hydrogen atoms become slightly positive in charge, while the oxygen becomes slightly negative. So, if two such molecules come into contact with one another, the negatively polar part of the molecule creates a bond between the positively polar part of the other molecule; a.k.a. the hydrogen bond.
