Explanation:
Two events involving electrons are gain and loss of electrons.
When there is gain or loss of electrons between two atoms then it results in the formation of ionic bond.
Whereas when there is sharing of electrons between two atoms then it results in the formation of covalent bond.
Therefore, the chemical bonds formed can be ionic or covalent bonds.
Answer:
An increase
Explanation:
The strong southerly winds affect the vapor pressure by increasing it .
When the vapor pressure increases it means an increase in temperature and more evaporation occurs.
A decrease in the vapor pressure means a reduction in temperature with less amount of evaporation being involved
Answer:
1.5 hours or 90 minutes
Explanation:
Velocity = d/t
V = 64 mi / hour or 96 mi / 9 min OR 16 mi / 15 min
D = 96 miles
Velocity * Time = Distance
Time = Distance / Velocity
T = 96 mi / 64 mi / hour
96 / 64 = 1.5 mi per hour
T = 1.5 hours or 90 minutes
The early precambrian atmosphere consisted primarily of nitrogen and carbon dioxide with almost no oxygen.
<span>Today, the atmosphere contains about 20% oxygen, less carbon dioxide and similar amounts of nitrogen. </span>
<span>Photosynthetic green-leaf plants and trees are largely responsible for the change, converting carbon dioxide to oxygen.</span>

See explanation
Explanation:
The reactivity of metals has a lot to do with their position in the electrochemical series. However, it is also known that metallic character decreases across the period. This implies that as we move from left to right along the periodic table. Sodium, magnesium, aluminum and silicon continues to decrease in metallic character. As a matter of fact, silicon is a metalloid and not a pure metal.
Sodium reacts with cold water to give a vigorous reaction,magnesium and aluminium reacts with steam at red heat.
Silicon does not react with water, even as steam, under normal conditions.
