  2. ‘The hydrogen bond is an attractive interaction between a hydrogen atom from a molecule or a molecular fragment X–H in which X is more electronegative than H, and an atom or a group of atoms in ...

  3. Sep 20, 2024 · Chemical bonding, any of the interactions that account for the association of atoms into molecules, ions, crystals, and other species. When atoms approach one another, their electrons interact and tend to distribute themselves in space so that the total energy is lower than it would be in any alternative arrangement.

  4. Sep 26, 2024 · For a little more than a century, chemists have believed that strong atomic links called covalent bonds are formed when atoms share one or more electron pairs. Now, researchers have made the...

  5. Sep 25, 2024 · The one-electron oxidation of a hydrocarbon with an elongated C–C single bond provides direct evidence for a one-electron σ-bond between carbon atoms.

  6. Sep 20, 2024 · Broadly speaking, in VB theory a bond between atoms A and B is formed when two atomic orbitals, one from each atom, merge with one another (the technical term is overlap), and the electrons they contain pair up (so that their spins are ↓↑).

  7. Sep 20, 2024 · The theory of molecular shape known as valence-shell electron-pair repulsion (VSEPR) theory grew out of Lewis ’s theory, and, like that approach to bonding, VSEPR focuses on the role of electron pairs.

  8. Oct 7, 2024 · A hydrogen bond is a type of attractive (dipole-dipole) interaction between an electronegative atom and a hydrogen atom bonded to another electronegative atom. This bond always involves a hydrogen atom. Hydrogen bonds can occur between molecules or within parts of a single molecule.
