Answer:

The diagram is attached below.

Explanation:

when sodium and chlorine comes close together they form anion and cation. The compound formed is called sodium chloride.

Both atoms bonded together through ionic bond.

Ionic bond:

It is the bond which is formed by the transfer of electron from one atom to the atom of another element.

Both bonded atoms have very large electronegativity difference. The atom with large electronegativity value accept the electron from other with smaller value of electronegativity.

For example:

Sodium chloride is ionic compound. The electronegativity of chlorine is 3.16 and for sodium is 0.93. There is large difference is present. That's why electron from sodium is transfer to the chlorine. Sodium becomes positive and chlorine becomes negative ion.

Describe the changes that a country undergoes as it passes through the three stages of the demographic transition. Use the Unite

Paladinen [302]

In stage 1, both birthrate and death rate are high, and the population grows slowly. Stage 1 describes the US for the early years of history. Then during Stage 2, improvements in health care, sanitation, and nutrition all people to live longer and reduce the death rate. The birthrate however, remains high during this stage so the population increases rapidly. This occurred in the US in the 1800s. Eventually, birthrate decreases to match the low death rate and the population growth slows and eventually stops. This is the US today.
