Bond-dissociation energy

{
  "id": "MLC-T-CHM-001421",
  "term": "Bond-dissociation energy",
  "field": "Chemistry",
  "definition": "The enthalpy change required to break a specific bond in a molecule, resulting in two radical fragments. This value is a measure of the strength of that particular chemical bond. Bond-dissociation energies are typically reported in kilojoules per mole (kJ/mol) or kilocalories per mole (kcal/mol).",
