Around a transform boundary between two plates that slide past each other.
In order to find out how many protons a sodium atom has, you have to look at the periodic table. Sodium is Na on the periodic table and you look for the number on the top of the symbol and you can see that it has 11 protons. To find out how many neutrons, you have to subtract 11 from the mass number, which is 23. 23-11 = 12.
12 neutrons; 11 protons
Water has greatest boiling and melting points because strong hydrogen bonds between water molecules (intermolecular force). That is because oxygen has largest electronegativity and smallest atomic radius of all elements in group. Other elements in this group do not form hydrogen bonds and they are gasses in room temperature, water is liquid and their boiling and melting points are lower. Boiling and melting point of hydrides gradually increases from H₂S to H₂Te because of increase of the radius and molecular mass of atoms from sulfur to tellurium, that is why intermolecular force of attraction of molecules increases. <span>

Answer:
The atmosphere traps heat energy from the Sun and energy radiated from Earth's surface helping to maintain Earth's climate
Explanation:
Earth's atmosphere keeps much of the Sun's energy from escaping into space. This process, called the greenhouse effect, keeps the planet warm enough for life to exist. The atmosphere allows about half of the Sun's heat energy (50%) to reach Earth's surface.
