Answer 1

Answer: 1 Two properties of water that result from the polar bonding between its molecules are as       follows:

1) High boiling point: Because of the polarity of the bond in water molecule, molecules came closer and form an association and because of that the boiling point will increase.

2) High dielectric constant - Dielectric constant is the ability to completely separate the opposite ions, because of that water high valve of dielectric thus making it the good solvent.
