Hydrogen bond. Is the answer.

Answer: Hydrogen bond.

Explanation: Water is a polar covalent molecule in which two hydrogen atoms are bonded to central oxygen atom via single covalent bonds. So, metallic, nonpolar covalent or ionic choices are not correct. The only correct choice is hydrogen.

Hydrogen bonding is present in ice as we know that hydrogen bonding takes place when hydrogen is bonded to the more electron negative atoms(F, O or N). Density of ice decreases as the molecules are farther from each other due to the presence of hydrogen bonding. This hydrogen bonding breaks when ice melts to water and the molecules comes closer.

A plate moves 200 m in 10,000 years. What is its rate in cm/year?
Varvara68 [4.7K]

Answer:

The answer is

<h2>2 cm/year</h2>

Explanation:

To find the rate in cm/year we must first convert 200 m into cm

1 m = 100 cm

if 1 m = 100 cm

Then 200 m = 200 × 100 = 20 ,000 cm

So the rate is

<h2>\frac{20000}{10000}</h2>

<u>Reduce the fraction with 10,000</u>

We have the final answer as

<h3>2 cm/year</h3>

Hope this helps you

What does the sun do to generate energy?
Kruka [31]
Within the core of the Sun, temperatures and pressures are high enough to fuse hydrogen atoms into helium, which is the Sun's main form of energy production. Assuming there was a slight mistake in where you have copied the results here the correct answer is the third option.
Hope this helps!
