  2. Bond energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_energy

    In chemistry, bond energy (BE) is one measure of the strength of a chemical bond. It is sometimes called the mean bond , bond enthalpy , average bond enthalpy , or bond strength . [ 1 ] [ 2 ] [ 3 ] IUPAC defines bond energy as the average value of the gas-phase bond-dissociation energy (usually at a temperature of 298.15 K) for all bonds of the ...

  3. Chemical bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Chemical_bond

    A chemical bond is the association of atoms or ions to form molecules, crystals, and other structures. The bond may result from the electrostatic force between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds, or some combination of these effects.

  4. Group cohesiveness - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Group_cohesiveness

    Group cohesiveness, also called group cohesion, social harmony or social cohesion, is the degree or strength of bonds linking members of a social group to one another and to the group as a whole. [1] Although cohesion is a multi-faceted process, it can be broken down into four main components: social relations , task relations, perceived unity ...

  5. Molecular binding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molecular_binding

    Molecular binding is an attractive interaction between two molecules that results in a stable association in which the molecules are in close proximity to each other. It is formed when atoms or molecules bind together by sharing of electrons.

  6. Metallic bonding - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Metallic_bonding

    Metallic bonding is a type of chemical bonding that arises from the electrostatic attractive force between conduction electrons (in the form of an electron cloud of delocalized electrons) and positively charged metal ions. It may be described as the sharing of free electrons among a structure of positively charged ions .

  7. Bond-dissociation energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond-dissociation_energy

    The bond dissociation energy is an enthalpy change of a particular chemical process, namely homolytic bond cleavage, and "bond strength" as measured by the BDE should not be regarded as an intrinsic property of a particular bond type but rather as an energy change that depends on the chemical context.

  8. Intramolecular force - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Intramolecular_force

    The bond length, or the minimum separating distance between two atoms participating in bond formation, is determined by their repulsive and attractive forces along the internuclear direction. [3] As the two atoms get closer and closer, the positively charged nuclei repel, creating a force that attempts to push the atoms apart.

  9. Binding energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Binding_energy

    Bond energy and bond-dissociation energy are measures of the binding energy between the atoms in a chemical bond. It is the energy required to disassemble a molecule into its constituent atoms. This energy appears as chemical energy, such as that released in chemical explosions, the burning of chemical fuel and biological processes. Bond ...
