B. Brief Description
A chemical bond can be defined as the force that causes a group of the same or
different atoms to unite with the same behavior, have a lower energy level and are more
stable than the atoms themselves. Maximum stability is achieved if the bonded atoms
have the same electron configuration as the noble gas elements (duplet or octet
structure). There are different kinds of bonds depending on how the atoms are joined
together (ionic, covalent, metallic, hydrogen, and Van der Waals bonds).
