Solution

Chemical bonds:

  • A chemical bond is a bond formed between two atoms.
  • There are different types of bonds depending on the electrons shared between the atoms.
  • They are ionic, covalent, coordination bonds, hydrogen bonds etc.

Bond formation:

  • The formation of bonds is accompanied by a decrease in the system's energy.
  • The bond is formed when the electrons are shared between the two or more atoms.
  • When the atomic orbitals overlap it results in the formation of a bond.
  • More the overlap of atomic orbitals, the stronger the bond.
  • Because of the bonding to the surface, new electronic states are produced when an atom or molecule is adsorbed on a surface.
