Answer: two plates sliding toward each other
Explanation:
Transform boundaries are where two of these plates are sliding alongside each other. This causes intense earthquakes, the formation of thin linear valleys, and split river beds. The most famous example of a transform boundary is the San Andreas Fault in California.

Answer:</h3>
Sodium
<h3>
Explanation:</h3>
- To answer the question we need to know a few things.
What are cations?
- Cations are positively charged ions that are formed when an atom of an element loses an electron(s).
What elements form cations?
- Metallic elements form cations since they react by losing electrons thus forming ions with a positive charge.
- For example, alkali metals such as sodium form cations with a charge of +1.
- In this case, sodium will form a cation with a charge of + 1, Na⁺
What are negatively charged ions?
- Negatively charged ions are known as anions.
- They are formed by non-metallic elements such as sulfur, argon, silicon, etc.
Answer:
: The conductivity of electrolyte solutions: (a) 0.1 M NaCl (b) 0.05 M NaCl (c) 0.1 M HgCl2. An electrolyte solution conducts electricity because of the movement of ions in the solution (see above). The larger the concentration of ions, the better the solutions conducts. Weak electrolytes, such as HgCl2, conduct badly because they produce few ions when dissolved (low concentration of ions) and exist mainly in the form of molecules.

Answer:
This question is incomplete
Explanation:
This question is incomplete. A covalent bond is a bond that involves the sharing of valence electrons (shared pair) by two atoms of the same/different elements/compounds. The electrons (valence) that are involved in covalent bonding are not the ones in pairs (lone pairs) on the outermost shell of the atom. For example, the single electron on a hydrogen atom is shared with another hydrogen to form hydrogen gas (H₂).
Another example is when the two individual/unpaired electrons on the outermost shell of an oxygen atom binds with two other unpaired electrons on the outermost shell of another oxygen atom.
Another example is when two different electrons from two hydrogen atom binds singly with the two unpaired electrons on the outermost shell of an oxygen atom to form water.
The diagram in the attachment provides illustration on the examples given.
