Answer:

Option B, by saltation in the first few meters above the land surface

Explanation:

In the process of saltation, sand is carried by air and the sand grains remains suspended for a small distance till the fall down. These sand grains form a parabolic trajectory before falling down. The other characteristics such as height and time of suspended grains depends on grain size, shape, and density, lift & drag force and characteristics of wind such as velocity and turbulence.

Hence, option B is correct

NaCl: natriumchloride. 1 atom of each, so the 2 is too much and I (capital i here) is another element

So for the second excercise the number behind the symbol is the amount of atoms in the compound. So easily 2 atoms of Li, 1 atom of S and 4 of O
