Bond energy (chemistry)
From Biocrawler, the free encyclopedia.
In chemistry, bond energy (E) is a measure of bond strength in a chemical bond. For example the carbon - hydrogen bond energy in methane E(C-H) is the enthalpy change involved with breaking up one molecule of methane in a carbon atom and 4 hydrogen radicals divided by 4. Bond energy (E) should not be confused with bond dissociation energy.
