Default Re: Ionic compounds and molecular compounds

Before giving my reply I would like to know whether you are referring to molecules or about molecular solids when you talk about "molecular compounds". Do you wonder how oxygen and hydrogen stick together within water molecules (or the carbon and hydrogen atoms within benzene molecules etc. etc.), or how the molecules bond between each other when ice forms (or benzene crystallises etc.)?
