Answer:D. An ionic compound

Explanation:

An ionic compound by a complete transfer of valence electrons from an atom of a metal to an atom of a non metal so that both can attain a stable duplet or octet structure of noble gases. Potassium has 19 electrons with one valence electron while chlorine has 17 electrons with 7 valence electrons. Potassium will transfer its valence electron to chlorine atom, resulting in potassium having one positive charge and chlorine have one negative charge with both attaining a noble octet structure of noble gases. The compound formed is an ionic compound because it involves a positively charged potassium ion and a negatively charged chloride ion.

What is the difference between an atom of silver and anatom of gold?  
eduard
The right answer is C. I think, a. and d. are obviously not serious. B is not true, because Ag and Au are in the same group in the periodic table and therefore have the same number of electrons in the last level. So, they form ions with the same charge. C is true beacause Ag and Au have different numbers in the periodic table and different amount of protons and neutrons in their nucleuses.

rjkz [21]

Well, we have a book to write on this topic but imma explain it briefly plus simply.

  • Global warming emphasizes the environment with rising temperatures, water shortages, increased fire threats, droughts, weeds and pest attacks, severe storm damage and salt attacks, to name just a few.(In simple words)

Now, we'd go briefly and discuss some common affects briefly :

  1. Hotter days - The climate is getting more and more warmer and year 2015 was the hottest year ever record throughout the history. The Earth's temperature had already warmed by 1°C which is really dangerous.
  2. Rising sea levels - Rising sea levels due to climate change is the biggest problem causing natural calamities. Increased ocean temperatures are melting glaciers and ice caps all over the world. Melted ice increases the volume of water in our oceans. Warmer temperatures also result in the expansion of the water's mass, which causes sea levels to rise, threatening islands and coastal cities.
  3. More frequent and intense extreme weather - Extreme weather events like bushfires, cyclones, droughts and floods are becoming more common and more aggressive as a result of global warming.
