Answer:

Choice D

Explanation:

Water molecules exhibit hydrogen bonded to oxygen, which is considered a hydrogen bond. This is the strongest type of bond and is not easily broken.

Therefore, water has a high heat capacity and can withstand higher temperatures than that of some other liquids.

Setler [38]

Answer: Atmospheric Nitrogen is unreactive

Explanation:

The atmosphere is made up of about 80% Nitrogen, 16% oxygen, about 4% carbon dioxide, rare gases etc.

However, the 80% Nitrogen is highly unreactive, and needs to be trapped by competent micro organisms known as nitrogen-fixing bacteria in the root nodules of legumes.

Then, it is converted to several forms like nitrites, nitrates (easily absorbed by plants), ammonia and finally escape to the atmosphere again.
