Answer:

The energy required to break a covalent bond

Explanation:

When a chemical bond is formed, energy is released. When a chemical bond is broken, energy is absorbed.

We define the bond dissociation energy as the energy required to break a covalent bond. The process of covalent bond cleavage is endothermic hence energy is absorbed for the process to occur.
