Bond


Definition:

  • (n.) That which binds, ties, fastens, or confines, or by which anything is fastened or bound, as a cord, chain, etc.; a band; a ligament; a shackle or a manacle.
  • (n.) The state of being bound; imprisonment; captivity, restraint.
  • (n.) A binding force or influence; a cause of union; a uniting tie; as, the bonds of fellowship.
  • (n.) Moral or political duty or obligation.
  • (n.) A writing under seal, by which a person binds himself, his heirs, executors, and administrators, to pay a certain sum on or before a future day appointed. This is a single bond. But usually a condition is added, that, if the obligor shall do a certain act, appear at a certain place, conform to certain rules, faithfully perform certain duties, or pay a certain sum of money, on or before a time specified, the obligation shall be void; otherwise it shall remain in full force. If the condition is not performed, the bond becomes forfeited, and the obligor and his heirs are liable to the payment of the whole sum.

  • (n.) The state of goods placed in a bonded warehouse till the duties are paid; as, merchandise in bond.

  • (n.) A unit of chemical attraction; as, oxygen has two bonds of affinity. It is often represented in graphic formulae by a short line or dash. See Diagram of Benzene nucleus, and Valence.
