H, i’m not entirely sure but from what i know about land and plates and how they work, h is the best answer
Atoms of elements that are nonmetals tend to gain electrons and atoms of metallic elements tend to lose electrons. Metals have few electrons in their valence shells.
By losing those electrons, these metals achieve noble gas configuration and satisfy the octet rule.
Nonmetals that have close to 8 electrons in their valence shells readily accept electrons to achieve noble gas configuration.
An example is the reaction between calcium and oxygen. Calcium is a metal and has 2 valence electrons. Oxygen is a nonmetal and has 6 valence electrons.
Calcium gives up its two valence electrons and oxygen accepts them and an ionic bond is established resulting in the formation of anew compound namely calcium oxide.
Answer:
The ocean currents are too strong by the Amazon River to form deltas.
Explanation:
The Atlantic has sufficient wave and tidal energy to carry most of the Amazon's sediments out to sea, thus the Amazon does not form a true delta. The great deltas of the world are all in relatively protected bodies of water, while the Amazon empties directly into the turbulent Atlantic.
they are made by of two types of elementary particles
electrons and quarks

so you can see those fluorine atoms have really spread out around the central phosphorus atom. this gives us a trigonal bi-pyramidal molecular geometry for pf5.
