chemical bond
lasting attraction between atoms that enables the formation of chemical compounds
hydrogen bond
form of association between an electronegative atom and a hydrogen atom attached to a second, relatively electronegative atom
metallic bond
type of chemical bond in metals, sharing conduction electrons among a lattice of cations
three-center two-electron bond
electron-deficient chemical bond where three atoms share one of two electrons
covalent bond
chemical bond that involves the sharing of electron pairs between atoms
multi-center bond
interatomic bond in molecules involving more than two atoms
Scissile bond
In molecular biology, a covalent chemical bond that can be broken by an enzyme
delta bond
type of chemical bond
three-center bond
index of chemical compounds with the same name
chemical bonding model
theoretical model used to explain atomic bonding structure, molecular geometry, properties, and reactivity of physical matter
ionic bond
chemical bond involving electron transfer
halogen bond
occurs when there is evidence of a net attractive interaction between an electrophilic region associated with a halogen atom in a molecular entity and a nucleophilic region in another, or the same, molecular entity
salt bridge
combination of hydrogen and ionic bonding in chemistry
bridge
valence bond, an atom or an unbranched chain of atoms connecting two different parts of a molecule

type of covalent bond in organic chemistry
carbon chain
chain formed by a set of contiguous carbon atoms linked by covalent bonds
dangling bond
in chemistry
