Van der Waals forces are weak electrostatic interactions between molecules. These forces influence the physical properties of molecules, particularly their behavior in condensed phases. Named after the Dutch physicist Johannes Diderik van der Waals, these forces are much weaker than chemical bonds ionic, covalent, and metallic but play a vital role in many physical and chemical processes.
