Why do strong bonds exist between water molecules? They have nonpolar structure. They are held together by hydrogen bonds. The h

ydrogen end of a water molecule is weakly negative. The shared electrons are more attracted to the hydrogen atom.

Answer:

They are held together by hydrogen bonds

Explanation:

Hydrogen bonds are special dipole-dipole attractions between polar molecules in which a hydrogen atom is directly joined to a highly electronegative atom(oxygen or nitorgen or fluorine).

Such molecules includes water, alkanoic acids, ammonia and amines.

A hydrogen nucleus has a high concentration of positive charge. The bond is actually an electrostatic attraction between the hydrogen atom of one molecule and the electronegative atom(O or N or F).

Hydrogen bonds are very effective in binding molecules into larger units. Most substances that joins with hydrogen bonds have a higher boiling point and lower volatility.

This is why we have a strong intermolecular bond between water molecules.

Poorer countries are at greater risk during droughts than the richer countries what evidence supports this conclusion
Flauer [41]

Answer:

Option D = Poor countries often cannot afford investments that ensure access to fresh water.

Explanation:

This question wants to test out knowledge on biodiversity and how the loss of water affects it. Fresh water is needed for plants to grow. Several activities by man such as the use of chemical and fertilizers been washed into the sea, oil spillage and so on causes the pollution of fresh water.

So, because of the great resources (money) of the wealthy countries they have access to good facilities as these countries make use of their money to make sure they are still having access to fresh water despite the pollution caused by man activities.

Suppose you have a mixture of solid mg(oh)2 and baso4, how do you separate the mixture
Step2247 [10]
This separation technique is a 4-step procedure. First, add H₂SO₄ to the solution. Because of common ion effect, BaSO₄ will not react, only Mg(OH)₂.

Mg(OH)₂ + H₂SO₄ → MgSO₄ + 2 H₂O

The aqueous solution will now contain MgSO₄ and BaSO₄. Unlike BaSO₄, MgSO₄ is soluble in water. So, you filter out the solution. You can set aside the BaSO₄ on the filter paper. To retrieve Mg(OH)₂, add NaOH.

MgSO₄ + 2 NaOH = Mg(OH)₂ + Na₂SO₄

Na₂SO₄ is soluble in water, while Mg(OH)₂ is not. Filter this solution again. The Mg(OH)₂ is retrieved in solid form on the filter paper.
