Explanation:
During chemical reactions, the bonds that hold molecules together break apart and form new bonds, rearranging atoms into different substances. Each bond requires a distinct amount of energy to either break or form; without this energy, the reaction cannot take place, and the reactants remain as they were.

Some chemical bonds are broken down and new ones are created in chemical reactions.
- This above statement is the most important aspect of chemical changes.
- Whenever one or more substances undergo chemical changes, some of the chemical bonds are broken down and new ones are created.
- The chemical reaction starts whenever the energy content of the reactants reach the activation energy.
Let's take the following example :
- Here the bonds between Na+ and is broken down and new bonds between Na+ and Cl- are created.
- This is an example of Double-Displacement reaction.
