Bond Definition and 324 Threads

You purchase a bond with a face value of $1000 and a coupon rate of 9.8% compounded semi-annually. The bond has a maturity of 10 years. How mush is the bond worth if you sell it after 3.5 years and the interest rate for similar bonds is 8% compounded semi-annually? Assume you clip the latest...

Consider the hypothetical molecule 1,3,5-cyclohexatriene (not benzene, I am referring to a molecule where no resonance takes place - a molecule with three C=C bonds and 3 C-C bonds). Each carbon atom in this molecule would be participating in one double bond, and so each carbon atom would be sp2...

Is there an equation or algorithm around to calculate bond energies of specific bonds in a molecule purely from atomic properties and the arrangement of the molecule without using lookup tables per molecule?

When determining the bond angle of an atom, is it not applicable if you have an atom bonded to only one other atom? such as for CO2, would you only be able to write the angle for C, 180 degrees, but not for oxygen despite the lone pairs?

Hey, guys, I have just watced a fantastic animation of the microscopic process of sound wave traveling, in which model was described as many balls connected by springs. But the problem is what we learned in thermodynamics chapter is that there is no bonds between molecules in gas, then how...

OK so we have a dipolar bond between two elements. This bond makes the other electrons redistribute in order to rest in peace. Everything's OK up until now. What happens, however, when two of these other electrons have the same spin an yet they end up together because of this redistribution? I...

This is a question in "Chemical Principles, 6th Edition, Steven Zumdahl": Bond energy has been defined in the text as the amount of energy required to break a chemical bond, so we have come to think of the addition of energy as breaking bonds. However, in some cases the addition of energy can...

Homework Statement From a journal I read that the cobalt-based perovskite cathode usually has better ionic and electrical conduction but higher TEC compare to Maganite-based perovskite cathode. Because of the Co-O bond is weaker than Mn-O bond. e.g. Cobalt-based perovskite cathode...

I know that in different molecular configurations, bond strength is affected by the arrangement of the atoms, but at higher temperatures, there is higher vibrational energy, right? So, if we...

Hello, Theoretical physicists assert that quantum mechanic and relativistic world use distinct mathematical models that can not united into one so far. The reason of it, which I do not understand, is the gravity. Once we encompass the gravity in the quantum world (or vice versa), we (maybe)...

I was wondering if a quadruple bond between two carbon atoms would be possible. I found this on wikipedia about "dicarbon": http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Diatomic_carbon, which is related to this question, since what I'm describing is an isomer of dicarbon. Anyone have any ideas?

If the bond length of two atoms is the distance where the force of repulsion is equal to the force of attraction, then one could figure out what the bond length of H2 is by setting the net force of attraction to the net force of repulsion and solving for distance. However when I try this ...

I am not in Atomic physics, Everywhere is the standard picture of a bond with 2 atoms sharing 2 electrons. Why is it not possible to share 3 or more electrons that it would form something like a tetrahedron (see attachment)

Why does "phosphodiester bond" have "diester" as part of it's name? Why does "phosphodiester bond" have "diester" as part of it's name? I don't see two esters. I must be overlooking something. Maybe it's because the two riboses can dissociate into ester form? Thanks.

Hi, I am looking for a good reference on the relative strengths of several bonds. (I think this is the same as bond dissociation energy?) I.E., C-C, C-S, C-N, S-Au, etc. Is there a good reference out there? thanks

Consider NH3, if it forms a dative bond with an H+ to form an ammonium ion, will the oxidation number of N change from +3 to +5? My reasoning is that it uses 5 electrons in bonding. Is that correct?

Homework Statement My textbook wrote that haloalkanes are generally insoluble in water.It is because the polar C-X bonds are not polar enough to make the haloalkanes soluble in water. Consider tetrafluoromethane Difference in electronegativity between F and C = 4.0 - 2.5 = 1.5 Difference in...

Question Statement: Which of the above is less stable and more reactive? Relevant Equations: None really. Attempt at solution: Well, the C-O bond's bond energy is lower so I argued that since it takes less energy to break this bond than it does to break the C=C double bond, then it (C-O) is...

Einstein discovered that general covariance allows his GR equation to have just TWO gravitational/geometric constants: Newton G and a curvature constant he called Lambda. So the symmetry of the theory requires us to put both constants into the equation and investigate empirically whether or not...
