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

Ions are atoms that have become___ as they have lost or gained electrons<br> whats in the gap?
GuDViN [60]

Answer:

Positively or negatively charged (im not 100% sure but the question says "as they have lost or gained electrons") because atoms that gain electrons are called anions and atoms that lose electrons are called cations. atoms losing electrons are positively charged and atoms gaining electrons are negatively charged.

I'm not sure if this helps a lot but now you know a few things about ions :)

explain why the properties of a reactant can be different from the properties off the products of the reaction
Mrac [35]

Answer:

The reactants and products in a chemical reaction contain the same atoms, but they are rearranged during the reaction. As a result, the atoms end up in different combinations in the products. This makes the products new substances that are chemically different from the reactants.
