Bond strength is the amount of energy needed to break a chemical bond. The concept of bond strength is important for understanding chemical reactions, chemical kinetics and activation energy. Below are tabulated some example bond strengths. [1]
| Chemical Bond | Bond Strength (kcals/mole) |
|---|---|
| C-H | 99 |
| C-C1 | 79 |
| C-C | 83 |
| C-N | 70 |
| C-O | 84 |
| C=C | 147 |
| C=O | 170 |
| H-H | 104 |
| H-O | 111 |
| H-C1 | 103 |
| O=O | 118 |
| N=N | 226 |
| N-H | 66 |
| C1-C1 | 58 |
