Chemical bonds are what make up the world. In bonds‚ elements are held together and form compounds that may have new physical and chemical properties. There are two main kinds of bonds‚ they ionic and covalent. In bonding the goal of the atoms involved is to reach a level of stability with less energy. In order to reach the epitome of stability‚ as in the case of noble gases‚ an atom strives to complete its outer shell. Either losing or gaining electrons may do this‚ which concludes in an ionic bond

A chemical bond is an attraction between atoms that allows the formation of chemical substances that contain two or more atoms. The bond is caused by the electromagnetic force attraction between opposite charges‚ either between electrons and nuclei‚ or as the result of a dipole attraction. The strength of chemical bonds varies considerably; there are "strong bonds" such as covalent or ionic bonds and "weak bonds" such as dipole-dipole interactions‚ the London dispersion force and hydrogen bonding

Paragraph 1: Crystal chemical relationship between quartz (SiO2) and FePO4 The following describes the crystal chemical relationship between quartz (SiO2) and FePO4. At temperatures below 980 K‚ FePO4 exists as alpha- FePO4. Beyond the temperature mark of 980 K (at 980 K or higher)‚ FePO4 exists as beta- FePO4. The geometrical symmetry of single cell of α- FePO4 is trigonal while the geometrical symmetry of β- FePO4 is octahedral structure. At the alpha phase‚ the cell parameters shoots up by a
