Kerr (University of Birmingham, UK) for the provision of the bond strengths of diatomic molecules data.</p> <p>The values given here are at 298 K. All values are quoted in kJ mol<sup>-1</sup>. Generally, these data were obtained by spectroscopic or mass spectrometric means. You should consult reference 1 for further details. A note of caution: the strength of, say, the C-H bond in the gaseous diatomic species CH (not an isolable species) is not necessarily, the same as the strength of a C-H bond in, say, methane.</p> <p>The strongest bond for a diatomic species is that of carbon monoxide, CO (1076.5 ± 0.4 kJ mol<sup>-1</sup>). The strongest bond for a homonuclear diatomic species is that of dinitrogen, N<sub>2</sub> (945.33 ± 0.59 kJ mol<sup>-1</sup>).</p> <h3 class="p">References</h3> <ol> <li>J.A.
