Answer: Atoms (ions) are held together in an ionic bond through Electrostatic attraction

Explanation: Ions are atoms that lose or gain one or more electrons to become either positively or negatively charged, which are called anions and cations respectively. The cations are usually metals while anions are usually non-metals.

The bond (ionic bond) is formed when there is a transfer of valence electron(s) between the anion and the cation in order to obtain a full valence shell for both atoms.

Example of an ionic compound is NaCl.

Where: Na is the cation that looses a valence electron to become stable to Chlorine which is the anion that gained an electron to become stable.

Guys please help me with this question!

A reducing agent is one which is oxidised in the reaction itself. When you take into account the oxidation numbers you will see that the Cl- ions are oxidised from an oxidation number of -1 to 0 in Cl2. Therefore Cl- ions are the reducing agent.

Answer:

I believe that we humans will never be able to perfectly predict weather because nature is unpredictable, we face the challenges of when, and where when trying to predict storms, all countries most likely do not posses the resources and funds for these technologies, instead they could get a few meteorologists to study the weather.
