Answer:

The correct answer is hydrogen bonding.

Hydrogen bond is defined as a weak bond that results from electrostatic attraction taken place between hydrogen of one molecule and electro-negative atom of same or different molecule.

In water, partial negative charge is present on oxygen atom which attracts the partial positive charge present on hydrogen atom of other water molecule. This attractive interactions lead to the formation of inter-molecular hydrogen bonding.

Answer:  hydrogen bonding

Explanation:

Water molecules are bonded by strong hydrogen bonding between the less electronegative hydrogen atom and the electronegative oxygen atom. Oxygen atom withdraws the electron density towards itself and thus acquire a partial negative charge and hydrogen acquires a partial positive charge. The opposite charges attract each other and result into hydrogen bonds.

Ionic bond is formed the transfer of electrons between two atoms.

Covalent bond is formed by the sharing of electrons between two atoms.

Chemical bond is formed either by sharing of electrons or by transfer of electrons.

A sample of soil from a C horizon is light brown in color and has a high content of a mineral called feldspar. Which of the foll
vaieri [72.5K]

Answer: C. The C horizon is very deep.

Horizons are the layers of soil develops as a result of soil formation. Horizon lies parallel to the earth surface. Each horizon differs from the other on the basis of amount or organic matter present, color of the soil, texture of soil and other components making up horizon, and amount and type of minerals present in the soil.

C horizon is the horizon that lies deeper region of the collective soil horizon. It consist of unweathered or partially weathered rocks or their aggregates. Therefore, it retains the original chemical composition of the parent rock. This results in the higher mineral content as compared to other horizons. This horizon also lacks the organic matter as no or very little decomposition activity of plant and animal matter takes place. Therefore, color of soil in this horizon in the absence of organic matter remains light.

Hence, a sample of soil from a C horizon is light brown in color and has a high content of a mineral called feldspar is because of the fact that the C horizon is very deep.
