| − | '''Bond strength''' is the amount of energy needed to break a [[chemical bond]]. The concept of bond strength is important for understanding [[chemical reaction]]s, [[chemical kinetics]] and [[activation energy]]. Below are tabulated some example bond strengths. <ref>Wile, Dr. Jay L. ''Exploring Creation With Chemistry''. Apologia Educational Ministries, Inc. 1998</ref>
