As an alternative energy source, nuclear energy is more harmful to the environment than a coal-fired power plant because it produces more mercury, air pollution, and carbon dioxide.
true
or
false

False

Explanation:

It is coal-fired power plants that produce mercury, air pollution, and carbon dioxide.  

However, nuclear energy produces radioactive waste that must be stored for many years before it can be safely disposed.

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.

c-14 is carbon-14, or radiocarbon.   it is a radioactive isotope of carbon with an atomic nucleus containing 6 protons and 8 neutrons.
