Attractive:

1. Ionic bonds - the attraction between positively and negatively charged ions
2. Covalent bonds - the sharing of electrons between atoms
3. Metallic bonds - the attraction between positively charged metal ions and the delocalized electrons

Repulsive:

1. Van der Waals forces - the weak attraction between temporary dipoles in molecules
2. Pauli exclusion principle - the repulsion between electrons in the same orbital due to their like charges
3. Repulsion between electron clouds in overlapping orbitals in a chemical bond
