==Key Stage 4==
===Meaning===
'''Bond Energy''' is the [[energy]] needed to break a [[Chemical Bond|chemical bond]] between two [[atom]]s.

===About Bond Energy===
: When [[Chemical Bond|chemical bonds]] are formed [[energy]] is released to the surroundings increasing the [[temperature]]. An [[exothermic]] process]].
: To break [[Chemical Bond|chemical bonds]] [[energy]] is needed to separate the [[atom]]s, decreasing the [[temperature]] of the [[surroundings]]. An [[endothermic]] process]].

===Examples===
Some common '''bond energies''' are given in the table below.
