Abstract A quantitative comparison was made on the amount, the density and the categories of graphic system in chemical bond between Chinese and foreign chemistry textbooks. This study found that the categories of graphs were relatively abundant in every country chemistry textbooks and the use of the model class graphs were the most. In addition, graphs were mainly distributed in the core concepts of covalent bond. The amount and the density of Chinese chemistry textbooks were in the center of ten ranking, and the categories of the graphs were slightly deficient.
