An earthquake happens when tectonic plates move against each other. A oceanic and a continental tectonic plates might move against each other. When that happens water is pushed upwards and it creates ripples that then move towards land. It's like throwing a rock in water but a lot bigger. I can't post external links on Brainly but you can find more information about tsunami's on Google

Write the complete balanced equation for the reaction between barium metal (Ba) and nitrogen gas (N2). You do not need to make t
hichkok12 [17]

3Ba + N2 -----> Ba3N2


Ba is in the second group and metal, its charge = +2 in the compound.

N is non-metal, it is in 15th group, so it has 5 electrons on the last level, so it can take 3 electrons more(8-5=3). N has charge (-3) in compound.

Ba and N form compound Ba3N2.
