The strongest bond between two atoms is the __________ bond

Asked by admin @ in Chemistry viewed by 262 People

Which is stronger: the covalent bond that holds atoms together within a molecule or the electrical attraction between two neighboring molecules? Explain.

Answered by admin @


I think the correct answer among the choices is the first one. The covalent bond that holds atoms together within a molecule is much stronger than the electrical attraction between two neighboring molecules. This is because in covalent bonds electrons are shared by the atoms in order to be stable without and atoms will always find a way for them to be stable while attractions between neighboring molecules can be temporary only.
