What are the strongest to weakest bonds?

In typical biological/chemical contexts:

• Covalent bonds (e.g., C–C, ~350 kJ/mol) are strongest for intramolecular bonding.
• Ionic bonds are strong in vacuum but attenuated in water due to dielectric screening.
• Hydrogen bonds are weaker (~5–40 kJ/mol) but crucial in structure (DNA base pairing).
• van der Waals (London dispersion, dipole-induced) are weakest individually but additive in large surfaces.
  Special cases: metallic bonding varies; network covalent solids (diamond) exhibit exceptional strength.
