4th SESSION : CHEMICAL BONDS ARE REAL PATTERNS

Vanessa Seifert (University of Athens)

Abstract: 

There is a persisting debate about what chemical bonds are and whether they exist. I argue that chemical bonds are real patterns of interactions between subatomic particles. This proposal resolves the problems raised in the context of existing understandings of the chemical bond and provides a novel way to defend the reality of chemical bonds.
