Question

What is the strongest bond?


Open in App
Solution

Chemical bonding:

  1. The attractive force which holds several constituents together in a different chemical species is known as chemical bonding.
  2. The reaction between two or more atoms, molecules, and ions leads to the formation of a chemical bond.
  3. Chemical bonds can generally be classified into four types: covalent bonds, hydrogen bonds, polar bonds, and ionic bonds.

Strongest bond:

  1. The strongest bond of chemical bonding is the covalent bond.
  2. The formation of covalent bonds is due to the electron cloud overlap and it has high dissociation energy.
  3. The single covalent bond is much stronger than the double and triple bonds because there is a large overlapping electron density between the atom forming the bond.
  4. It requires high energy to break the covalent bond between the atoms.
  5. The covalently bond solids have high boiling and melting points.
  6. A covalent bond has a strong bond strength.
