#chemical_bond__bond an electrical force linking atoms
supertype: attractive_force__attraction the force by which one object attracts another
subtype: covalent_bond a chemical bond that involves sharing a pair of electrons between atoms in a molecule
subtype: coordinate_bond__dative_bond a covalent bond in which both electrons are provided by one of the atoms
subtype: cross-link__crosslink__crosslinkage a side bond that links two adjacent chains of atoms in a complex molecule
subtype: hydrogen_bond a chemical bond consisting of a hydrogen atom between two electronegative atoms (e.g., oxygen or nitrogen) with one side be a covalent bond and the other being an ionic bond
subtype: ionic_bond__ionicbond__electrovalent_bond__electrovalentbond__electrostatic_bond__electrostaticbond a chemical bond in which one atom loses an electron to form a positive ion and the other atom gains to electron to form a negative ion
subtype: metallic_bond a chemical bond in which electrons are shared over many nuclei and electronic conduction occurs
subtype: peptide_bond__peptidebond__peptide_linkage__peptidelinkage the primary linkage of all protein structures; the chemical bond between the carboxyl groups and amino groups that unites a peptide
