Atoms form bonds to seek stability, which means lower energy compared to when they were separated. This means that separating atoms by breaking bonds is not energetically favourable.
Therefore, in order to break a chemical bond we need to provide energy to the system, which makes the process endothermic (it absorbes energy).
The attached image shows an energy diagram for the H₂ molecule, showing the variation in energy during bond formation.
False. <span>Breaking Bonds → Energy Absorbed </span> You have to put energy into a molecule to break its chemical bonds. The amount needed is called the<span> bond energy</span><span>. If you think about it, molecules don't spontaneously break. </span>
Ionic bonding When metals react with non-metals, electrons are transferred from the metal atoms to the non-metal atoms, forming ions . The resulting compound is called an ionic compound .
The fish are eaten by ducks. Ducks cannot really swallow preys that are too big for their throats. They usually swallow organisms that are a lot smaller than fishes. because they do not have the capacity to bite and chew their preys.
