This is false. An alcohol does indeed have a polar C-O single bond, but what we should really be focusing on is the extraordinarily polar O-H single bond. When oxygen, fluorine, or nitrogen is bound to a hydrogen atom, there is a small (but not negligible) charge separation, where the eletronegative N, O, or F has a partial negative charge, and the H has a partial positive charge. Water has two O-H single bonds in it (structure is H-O-H). The partially negative charge on the O of the water molecule (specifically around the lone pair) can become attracted either a neighboring water molecule's partially positive H atom, or an alcohol's partially positive H atom. This is weak (and partially covalent) attraction is called a hydrogen bond. This is stronger than a typical dipole-dipole attraction (as would be seen between neighboring C-O single bonds), and much stronger than dispersion forces (between any two atoms). When the solvent (water) and the solute (the alcohol) both exhibit similar intermolecular forces (hydrogen bonding being the most important in this case), they can mix completely in all proportions (i.e. they are miscible) in water.
Answer:
Copper
Explanation:
Within intermolecular forces, ion-dipole is the strongest, followed by hydrogen bonding, then dipole-dipole, and then London dispersion.
Answer:
Nuclear energy comes from splitting atoms in a reactor to heat water into steam, turn a turbine and generate electricity.
Explanation:
Ninety-five nuclear reactors in 29 states generate nearly 20 percent of the nation's electricity, all without carbon emissions because reactors use uranium, not fossil fuels.

An example of an allotrope is carbon:
Carbon can exist in graphite, diamond and amorphous
Answer:
Inhibition and tolerance.
Explanation:
Competitive inhibitors are characterized by being chemicals that are similar to the normal substrate. While non-competitive inhibitors are chemicals that bind to the enzyme and alter its shape. This renders the active site of the enzyme ineffective against the substrate. Tolerance makes a society that is fair and equitable.
