Identify two characteristics of water that are a result of its molecular structure. Describe how each characteristic is related to the molecular structure of water.

Explained below

Explanation:

1) Hydrogen bonds are formed between molecules

All these is because the bonds are flexible in such a manner that in the liquid phase, the molecules are relatively close to each other.

However, it is also noted that the hexagonal arrangement of ice is formed the bonds will be locked in place which will result in the average distance between molecules actually increasing which in turn means given a result that ice is less dense than liquid water.

B) Water possesses a high boiling point: This is because the Hydrogen oxygen bond or O-H bonds are highly polar and the Hydrogen atoms in this bond are located at two corners of the tetrahedron shaped like bond shape which gives water it's high molecular polarity in which in turn makes the molecules to stick together.

c, liquids evaporate, creating a gas

c. 4.54 x 10–12 j happens to be correct
