How do you know where the bonds link to form a new molecule?
Bonds in a molecule BREAK when that molecule is reacted with another molecule. They then MAKE another bond.This bond can be between molecules or can just be part of the new molecule.There are many types of bonds: single, double and triple, therefore depending which bonds are broken, different bond types can result.
