  2. Bond energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_energy

    The strength of a bond can be estimated by comparing the atomic radii of the atoms that form the bond to the length of bond itself. For example, the atomic radius of boron is estimated at 85 pm, [10] while the length of the B–B bond in B 2 Cl 4 is 175 pm. [11] Dividing the length of this bond by the sum of each boron atom's radius gives a ratio of

  3. Halogen bond - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen_bond

    A halogen bond is almost collinear with the halogen atom's other, conventional bond, but the geometry of the electron-charge donor may be much more complex.. Multi-electron donors such as ethers and amines prefer halogen bonds collinear with the lone pair and donor nucleus.

  4. Bond-dissociation energy - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond-dissociation_energy

    The term bond-dissociation energy is similar to the related notion of bond-dissociation enthalpy (or bond enthalpy), which is sometimes used interchangeably.However, some authors make the distinction that the bond-dissociation energy (D 0) refers to the enthalpy change at 0 K, while the term bond-dissociation enthalpy is used for the enthalpy change at 298 K (unambiguously denoted DH° 298).

  5. Bond cleavage - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bond_cleavage

    In homolytic cleavage, or homolysis, the two electrons in a cleaved covalent bond are divided equally between the products. This process is also known as homolytic fission or radical fission. The bond-dissociation energy of a bond is the amount of energy required to cleave the bond homolytically. This enthalpy change is one measure of bond ...

  6. Homolysis (chemistry) - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Homolysis_(chemistry)

    Bond cleavage is also possible by a process called heterolysis. The energy involved in this process is called bond dissociation energy (BDE). [2] BDE is defined as the "enthalpy (per mole) required to break a given bond of some specific molecular entity by homolysis," symbolized as D. [3]

  7. Halogen - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Halogen

    The group of halogens is the only periodic table group that contains elements in three of the main states of matter at standard temperature and pressure, though not far above room temperature the same becomes true of groups 1 and 15, assuming white phosphorus is taken as the standard state. [n 1] All of the halogens form acids when bonded to ...

  8. Bonding in solids - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Bonding_in_solids

    As noted above, covalent and ionic bonds form a continuum between shared and transferred electrons; covalent and weak bonds form a continuum between shared and unshared electrons. In addition, molecules can be polar, or have polar groups, and the resulting regions of positive and negative charge can interact to produce electrostatic bonding ...

  9. Benson group increment theory - Wikipedia

    en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Benson_group_increment_theory

    First-order approximation. Additivity of bond properties. Second-order approximation. Additivity of group properties. These approximations account for the atomic, bond, and group contributions to heat capacity (C p), enthalpy (ΔH°), and entropy (ΔS°). The most important of these approximations to the group-increment theory is the second ...
