An ionic bond forms between an elemental metal and non-metal, characterized by the transfer of electrons from the metal to the non-metal in an attempt to mimic the stable octet.
A is the correct answer, as Potassium (a group 1 alkali metal) will donate an electron to Chlorine (a group 17 halogen). Potassium becomes more stable by removing the outermost shell, leaving behind a stable octet, and Chlorine completes its shell with the addition of the new electron. This trade of electrons forms their “ionic” forms, hence the reason for calling it an ionic bond. The other three form covalent bonds.
The greater the friction, or rubbing, between particles in any fluid, the higher the viscosity. A fluid with a high viscosity has a large amount of internal friction. As the temperature of a gas increases, friction increases, and so the viscosity of the gas increases. The warmer the gas, the slower it flows.
Answer:
Crystalline solids have regular ordered arrays of components held together by uniform intermolecular forces, whereas the components of amorphous solids are not arranged in regular arrays.
Explanation:
Answer:
Burning of fossil fuels
Explanation:
Human activities that increase the amount of carbon dioxide in the atmosphere are;
1) Burning of fossil fuels in industrial and internal combustion engines
2) Depletion of the available forest cover, due to the consumption of wood as a raw material
3) Farming expansion that lead to clearing of forests for farming
4) Industrial activities such as the production of cement
5) Deforestation to provide land for development including buildings and infrastructure.
