Advantages and disadvantages of using tidal energy instead of non-renewable energy sources.​

Advantages of using tidal energy:

-Environment-friendly

-A highly predictable energy source

-High energy density

-Operational and maintenance costs are low

-An inexhaustible source of energy

Disadvantages of using tidal energy:

-High tidal power plant construction costs.

-Negative influence on marine life forms.

-Location limits.

-The variable intensity of sea waves.

vanderwaal's forces of attraction are the electrostatic intermolecular forces that exist in a molecule due to the temporary or permanent dipoles that are developed in a molecule. in , the major intermolecular forces are dipole-dipole interactions as the molecule is polar (bent structure). so the vanderwaal's forces of interaction in between molecules are the permanent dipole-dipole interactions that develop due to the dipole that exists in between the polar h - s bond. the positively charged hydrogen atom is attracted towards the negative end of the dipole that is sulfur of the adjacent molecule. therefore, these forces of attraction are relatively stronger than that of london dispersion forces that exist in non polar molecules.
