Intermolecular means within, these bonds are within individual molecules, they include colavelt, ionic and metallic bonds.Intramolecular means the interactions are between molecules such as hydrogen bonding and van der walls forces.(Can discuss examples of these if student doesn't understand all types of bonding)
