Chemical Bonds

The force that holds atoms or ions together as a unit.

• Chemical bonds

• Chemical equation

• Chemical energy

• Electrostatic energy

Why do elements bond to one another? (multi-select)

• Because they are bored

• To achieve an full valence shell

• To become more stable

• To have more energy

Why do all bonds form?

• so the number of protons equals the number of electrons

• so an atom can become unstable

• to fill the outermost energy level
