1. Intra vs Inter The prefix intra- means “within”
The word intramural literally means “within walls”, and refers to things that occur within the walls of a school, or things that are self-contained.
Intraparticle forces act within a compound, such as covalent bonds.

2. Intra vs Inter The prefix inter- means “between” or “among”.
The internet, as I think we’re all aware, covers the globe, and anyone with a connection can access it from anywhere in the world. 
Interparticle forces act between compounds, usually molecules. These are new types of forces that we will discuss today.

3. Three types of force can operate between covalent molecules:
Interparticle Forces
Three types of force can operate between covalent molecules:
Dispersion Forces also known as London Forces or as van der Waal's Forces.
Dipole-dipole
Hydrogen bonds (special type of dipole-dipole)

4. Relative Strength of Intermolecular Forces:
Intermolecular forces are much weaker than intramolecular forces
dispersion forces are the weakest intermolecular force (one hundredth-one thousandth the strength of a covalent bond)
hydrogen bonds are the strongest intermolecular force (about one-tenth the strength of a covalent bond).
dispersion < dipole-dipole < hydrogen bonds

5. Dispersion Forces (London Forces, van der Waal's Forces)
Very weak forces of attraction between molecules resulting from:
momentary dipoles occurring due to uneven electron distributions in neighbouring molecules as they approach one another.
the weak residual attraction of the nuclei in one molecule for the electrons in a neighbouring molecule.
The more electrons that are present in the molecule, the stronger the dispersion forces will be.
Dispersion forces are the only type of intermolecular force operating between non-polar molecules

6. Dipole-dipole Interactions
Stronger intermolecular forces than Dispersion forces
occur between molecules that have permanent net dipoles (polar molecules).
The partial positive charge on one molecule is electrostatically attracted to the partial negative charge on a neighbouring molecule.

7. Hydrogen Bonds
occur between polar molecules that have a permanent net dipole resulting from hydrogen being covalently bonded to either fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen.
The dipole created between the hydrogen atom and the fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom is extremely polar.
This creates a highly localized positive charge on the hydrogen atom and highly negative localized charge on the fluorine, oxygen or nitrogen atom.
Responsible for high surface tension of water.

8. Effect of IntermolecularForces
Melting and Boiling Points
melting or boiling results from a weakening of the attractive forces between the molecules.
the stronger the intermolecular force is, the more energy is required to melt the solid or boil the liquid.

9. Effect of Intermolecular Forces on Solubility
In general like dissolves like:
non-polar compounds dissolve in non-polar solvents
polar compounds such as sugar (glucose C6H12O6) will dissolve in polar solvents such as water (H2O)
ionic solutes such as sodium chloride (NaCl) will generally dissolve in polar solvents but not in non-polar solvents
