The bonds that bind. Mike Sutton plots the journey of the scientists who solved the riddle of chemical bonding. Early in 1916, two scientists were independently converging on an important ...
Jun 5, 2020 · This review article traces the development of our understanding of bonding from prehistory, through the debates in the 19th century C.E. bearing on valence, to modern quantum chemical models and beyond. Keywords: bonding, valency, affinity, structure, history of science.

His book “The Nature of the Chemical Bond”, first published in 1939 with the third edition in 1960, was undoubtedly the most influential work in the field, greatly inspiring and shaping the understanding of chemical bonding for generations of chemists . A cursory glance at today’s chemistry textbooks and chemical literature shows that his view of chemical bonding has left a lasting ...
A chemical bond is the association of atoms or ions to form molecules, crystals, and other structures. The bond may result from the electrostatic force between oppositely charged ions as in ionic bonds or through the sharing of electrons as in covalent bonds, or some combination of these effects.
Aug 13, 2023 · Covalent bonds form when electrons are shared between atoms and are attracted by the nuclei of both atoms. In pure covalent bonds, the electrons are shared equally. In polar covalent bonds, the …
Using various chemical interpretation tools, such as molecular orbital analysis, natural bond orbitals (NBO), natural population analysis (NPA) and electron localization function (ELF) topological analysis, we [...] Read more.
