I WONDER - How Strong Are Chemical Bonds?

The video explains that not all chemical bonds are the same, with some being short and strong while others are long and weak. It uses the analogy of a handshake to illustrate this concept, comparing a firm handshake to a short strong bond and a weak handshake to a long weak bond. The video concludes by explaining that shorter bonds are usually stronger because the atoms are closer together, allowing them to hold each other tightly.
