Abstract
At this point we want to get an overview of the binding forces. Chemical bonds can be divided into “strong bonds” (metal binding, ion binding, electron pair binding) and “weak bonds” (dipole dipole interaction, hydrogen bond, Van der Waals forces). Let us also have a look to crystall ans molecule lattices.
