The answer is; Warm water moves to the east instead of to the west
Normally, when the waters in the Pacific warm up, the prevailing winds that blow from east to west drag the warm surface currents westwards and upwelling of cold currents occur at the west coast of South America. However, in El Nino, the Pacific ocean waters heat more than usual. The prevailing winds weaken and begin to blow predominantly towards the east. The warm currents are therefore dragged to the east and cause torrential rains in Western coast South Americas.
Covalent bonds are formed when two atoms are able to <em>share</em> electrons.
Iroinic bonds are form when two atoms are <em> </em> electrons from each other to complete the bond. This results in a pair of ions.
<u>Covalent bonds:</u>
- Have a definite shape.
- Have a low melting point.
- At room temperature they are in a liquid or gas.
- They occur between two non-metals.
<u>Ionic bonds:</u>
- Have no definite shape.
- Have a high melting point.
- At room temperature they are solid.
- They occur between a metal and a nonmetal.
NaCl is dissolved in water so that in a given region or volume the concentration is initially higher in one part than the other l, thus simple diffusion will occur so that there is a net difference or 0, with respect to the concentration of NaCl in a particular volume of water than another. Basically the NaCl will be distributed throughout volume of water.
The answer would be all of the above.
