A because water is collected in clouds from bodies of water than falls back down as rain snow or hail
I think it is B and A sorry if wrong
Answer:
Argon's atoms have 18 protons, 22 neutrons in its nucleus, orbited by 18 electrons- its atomic mass= P 18 +N 22.
Explanation:
Atoms are the most basic unit of matter that makes up elements. Atoms are composed of electrons orbiting neutrons and protons surrounding a nucleus.
The atomic number is defined as the number of protons in an atom, while the atomic mass is the number of protons and neutrons.
The element Argon, Ar is a noble gas, that exists in a gaseous, inert, state at temperature. Its atoms have 18 protons, 22 neutrons in its nucleus, orbited by 18 electrons- its atomic mass= P 18 +N 22.
There are 8 valence electrons in its outer shell, thus:
- Ar is not very reactive, as it does not require electron sharing in atomic bonding.
- It shows low conductivity, as there are no free electrons
Sometimes when the moon orbits Earth, it moves between the sun and Earth. When this happens, the moon blocks the light of the sun from reaching Earth. This causes an eclipse of the sun, or solar eclipse. During a solar eclipse, the moon casts a shadow onto Earth.
Bacteria converts the ammonia and ammonium into nitrates and nitrites is described below.
Explanation:
1. Nitrifying bacteria convert ammonia to nitrites or nitrates. Ammonia, nitrites, and nitrates are all fixed nitrogen and can be absorbed by plants. Denitrifying bacteria converts nitrates back to nitrogen gas.
2. The nitrification process requires the mediation of two distinct groups: bacteria that convert ammonia to nitrites (Nitrosomonas, Nitrosospira, Nitrosococcus, and Nitrosolobus) and bacteria that convert nitrites (toxic to plants) to nitrates (Nitrobacter, Nitrospina, and Nitrococcus).
3. Nitrifying bacteria present in the soil convert ammonia into nitrite. Nitrite is then converted into nitrate. This process is called Nitrification.
4. De-Nitrification: Nitrogen in its nitrate form (NO3–) is converted back into atmospheric nitrogen gas (N2) by bacterial species such as Pseudomonas and Clostridium, usually in anaerobic conditions. These bacteria use nitrate as an electron acceptor instead of oxygen during respiration
