<span>Water flows downhill, eroding the host rock to make it smooth. Water cleanses the ironbearing minerals, which helps to delineate the crystal faces. Water boils the rocks that it comes in contact with, causing them to liquefy and slowly cool and harden into a new, stable state. Water interferes with mineral crystallization, thereby delaying the process of metamorphism. Water migrates into host rock carrying ions to stable minerals in order to facilitate growth of new metamorphic minerals. </span>
Phosphorus has an electronic configuration in the simple form 2,8,5 and a spdf configuration of 1s² 2s² 2p⁶ 3s² 3p³.
The valence electrons in phosphorus (the electrons available for bonding) are 5. As a result, an atom of phosphorus shares its electrons with another atom to form COVALENT bonds. This is ideal since it would take a high amount of energy to release these five electrons, and it would be unlikely for atoms to lose 5 electrons to donate to phosphorus.

Explanation:
Ok first. Are you from mr.goodfriend's class? cause i know a safina and you questions are almost the same as the quiz thats due tommorow. Oh and it's b i think
It was developed by Alfred Wegener around 1912-1915 time frame. He proposed his theory of the "continental drift". He proposed that the continents plowed through crust of ocean basins. He said that the continents look like a puzzle piece to put together. It's very interesting.
Hope this helped :)
have a great day
