Dative bond
(noun)
Two-center, 2-electron covalent bond in which the two electrons derive from the same atom.
Examples of Dative bond in the following topics:
-
Complex Ion Equilibria and Solubility
- A complex ion is an ion comprising one or more ligands attached to a central metal cation with a dative bond.
- A ligand is a species which can use its lone pair of electrons to form a dative covalent bond with a transition metal.

Case
- Nominative, Case of Subject; Genitive, Objective with of, or Possessive; Dative, Objective with to or for; Accusative, Case of Direct Object; Vocative, Case of Address; Ablative, Objective with by, from, in, with.
- The Genitive, Dative, Accusative, and Ablative are called Oblique Cases.
-
Fourth Declension
- Nouns in -us sometimes have -ū in the Dative Singular, instead of -uī; as, frūctū (for frūctuī).
- The ending -ubus, instead of -ibus, occurs in the Dative and Ablative Plural of artūs (Plural), limbs; tribus, tribe; and in dis-syllables in -cus; as, artubus, tribubus, arcubus, lacubus.
-
Fifth Declension
- The ending of the Genitive and Dative Singular is -ĕī, instead of -ēī, when a consonant precedes; as, spĕī, rĕī, fidĕī.
- A Genitive and Dative form in -ē sometimes occurs; as, aciē.

The Five Declensions

Bond Order
- Bond order is the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms.
- Bond order is the number of chemical bonds between a pair of atoms; in diatomic nitrogen (N≡N) for example, the bond order is 3, while in acetylene (H−C≡C−H), the bond order between the two carbon atoms is 3 and the C−H bond order is 1.
- Bond order indicates the stability of a bond.
- Bond order is also an index of bond strength, and it is used extensively in valence bond theory.
- For a bond to be stable, the bond order must be a positive value.
-
Taxes and Bond Prices
- Taxes can cause bond prices and interest rates to differ.
- For example, the U.S. government bonds have a lower risk of default and higher liquidity than municipal bonds, whereas municipal bonds are the state and local government bonds.
- Government has exempted municipal bonds from federal taxes.
- On the other hand, the taxed bonds are not as attractive as an investment, so investors buy fewer bonds, causing bond prices to fall and interest rates to rise.
- Therefore, municipal bonds have a lower interest rate than U.S. government bonds.
-
Types of Bonds
- The most common secured bonds.
- This bears the owner's name on the bond certificate and in the register of bond owners kept by the bond issuer or its agent, the registrar.
- A term bond matures on the same date as all other bonds in a given bond issue.
- Serial bonds in a given bond issue have maturities spread over several dates.
- A bond with nondetachable warrants is virtually the same as a convertible bond; the holder must surrender the bond to acquire the common stock.
-
Bond Valuation Method
- A bond's value is measured by its sale price, but a business can estimate a bond's price before issuance by calculating its present value.
- The bond's contract rate is another term for the bond's coupon rate.
- If the market rate is greater than the coupon rate, the bonds will probably be sold for an amount less than the bonds' face value and the business will have to report a "bond discount. " The value of the bond discount will be the difference between what the bonds' face value and what the business received when it sold the bonds.
- If the market rate is less than the coupon rate, the bonds will probably be sold for an amount greater than the bonds' value.
- The business will then need to record a "bond premium" for the difference between the amount of cash the business received and the bonds' face value.
