"SOMETIMES IT SEEMS to me that a bond between two atoms has become so real, so tangible, so friendly, that I can almost see it. Then I awake with a little shock, for a chemical bond is not a real ...
Congratulations on “Chemical Connections,” which summarizes the peculiar history of our understanding of the nature of the chemical bond (C&EN, Sept. 9, page 28). I agree with most of the article, ...
During chemical reactions, atoms in the reacting substances break their bonds and re-arrange, forming different chemical ...
Because bond order is a chemical concept, and not an observable in the quantum mechanical sense, there does not exist a unique definition of bond multiplicity in quantum chemistry. Thus, it is ...
Scientists have managed to successfully make a transuranium complex where the central metal, here neptunium, forms a multiple bond to just one other element. Enabling study of such a bonding ...
A chemical bond is the physical phenomenon of chemical substances being held together by attraction of atoms to each other through sharing, as well as exchanging, of electrons -or electrostatic forces ...
