The concept of a bond energy between a pair of atoms is well-established in chemistry and physics. In materials science, it is a fundamental parameter in the development of thermodynamic models such as the regular, quasi-chemical and sub-regular solution models, as well as the central atoms model. Accurate bond dissociation enthalpies are available for gaseous molecular compounds, but these values are likely to differ significantly from single bond strengths between atoms in liquids and solids.
