The atoms in your body are bonded together with strong electrical bonds. So are the atoms of your chair.
The electrons of your body's atoms repel the electrons of your chair's atoms. Seriously, that's the reason why solid objects can't pass through each other even though atoms consist mostly of empty space.
Your body can't pass through the chair for the much the same reasons why one open fishnet can't pass through another open fishnet, even though fishnets are mostly empty space.

A chair is made up of various molecules of mixture of a number of compounds, Of course these compounds are in turn made up of atoms. All the molecules of the compounds are integrated together by variou forves of adhesion and cohesion along with the normal forces of gravity, nuclear and electrostatic forces. These intermolecular as well as intramolecular forces bring the molecules to very close proximity and there is no empty space remaining in between.
Therefore, the chair becomes a solid material and can sustain weight and destruction.

Atoms are held together by strong electrstatic forces of attraction-though though they are small,atoms are linked together by these forces which are of the strongest forces in nature further more these electrostatic forces of the electrons also prevent u from falling through
