The correct answer is liquefaction.

Usually, liquefaction is defined as a process where solid materials become liquid. Soil liquefaction is a type of liquefaction where soil substantially loses strength by the influence of stress such as shaking during an earthquake. As a result, solid materials start to behaves like a liquid.

<h2>Answer:</h2>

The process is <u>soil liquefaction</u>.

<h2>Explanation:</h2>

Soil liquefaction happens when a soaked or halfway immersed soil significantly loses quality and firmness because of applied pressure, for example, shaking during an earthquake or other abrupt change in pressure condition, in which material that is usually strong carries on like a fluid.  

The wonder is regularly seen in soaked, free (low thickness or uncompact), sandy soils. This is on the grounds that free sand tends to pack when a heap is applied. Thick sands, on the other hand, will, in general, extend in volume or 'enlarge'.  

On the off chance that the dirt is immersed by water, a condition that regularly exists when the dirt is beneath the water table or ocean level, at that point water fills the holes between soil grains ('pore spaces').  

In light of soil packing, the pore water weight increments and the water endeavors to stream out from the dirt to zones of low weight (typically upward towards the ground surface).

How does chlorine bond with sodium?
timurjin [86]

Both the sodium and the chlorine atoms need to obtain a stable electron configuration, thus, a complete outer shell of eight electrons.


Sodiums electron design is 2,8,1 and chlorines electron setup is 2,8,7. So all together for the two molecules of the two components to get a total external shell of eight electrons, sodium will give one electron to chlorine, and the chlorine particle will acknowledge the gave electron when responded with each other.

This outcomes in the sodium particle having an electron arrangement of 2,8 so is currently total. The chloride particle currently has an electron configuration of 2,8,8.

Since the molecules have moved toward becoming particles to end up stable, the Na+ and the Cl-particles draw in one another because of their contrary charges, which results in an ionic bond.


This is the reason sodium and chlorine cling to each other when responded.
