Vinvika [58]

Answer: b. The waste generated is hazardous and must  be disposed of.

c. Nuclear material can be spilled into the ocean  if reactors are near the coast.

d. A large amount of cold water is generated,  which must be stored somewhere.​

Explanation:

The main environmental costs for produced during the nuclear power plant consists of procurement of fuel and the thermal load is also produced with cold water discharge in the sea. This can contaminate the sea, hence, must be stored somewhere. The nuclear waste consists of radioactive substances which are hazardous for the environment. The nuclear based electricity does not produce carbon dioxide.

Which of the following molecules experience dipole-dipole forces as its strongest IMF? A) H2 B) SO2 C) NH3 D) CF4 E) BCl3
Xelga [282]

Answer: NH_3

Explanation:

a) H_2: This  is a non polar covalent compound which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

b) SO_2: This  is a covalent compound which is polar due to the presence of lone pair of electrons and are held by dipole-dipole forces of attraction.

c) NH_3: These are joined by a special type of dipole dipole attraction called as hydrogen bond. It forms between electronegative nitrogen atom and hydrogen atom and is the strongest interaction.

d) CF_4: This  is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vanderwaal forces of attraction.

e)  BCl_3: This  is a covalent compound and is non polar which are held by weak vander waal forces of attraction.
