Which of the following cities has a climate characterized by continentality
Vesna [10]

Answer:

3) Bismarck, North Dakota

The city that has a climate characterized by confidentiality is Bismarck, North Dakota. This city is relatively close to the center of the US, thus it is far away from the large bodies of water. It is in the mid-latitudes, so it doesn't have too much of an influence from the Arctic or from the tropics. Bismarck has just about enough rainfall so that it is not semi-arid, though it is on the borderline. The summers tend to be dry and hot, while the winters tend to be very cold and snowy.

Svetlanka [38]

Explanation:

When it comes to molecular bonding, a single additional atom can change the characteristics of the compound. This is why Carbon Dioxide is different from Carbon Monoxide even though they both contain only Carbon and Oxygen atoms albeit in different quantities.

In this scenario the compounds described are Hematite which has two iron atoms to three oxygen atoms and Magnetite which has three iron atoms to four oxygen atoms. The presence of the different number of the same atoms made these compounds different.
