<h2>Hey There!</h2><h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Answer:</h2><h2 />

$\huge\boxed{Option C}$

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>IONIC BOND:</h2>

Ionic bond is a type of bond which is formed between metals and non-metals. The group which provide the Metal are IA and IIA i.e. S block elements. The group which mostly provide non-metal is VII A i.e. halogens. The Metals give up their ONLY Valance shell electron which is accepted by the Non-metal. This results in formation of ions, The Metals gets the positive charge thus called cation and The non-metal gets a negative charge thus called anion. These Positive and Negative ion attract each other resulting in the formation of IONIC BOND.

The Ionic bond is formed between The metal and non metal because, the metals have low ionization energy due to which the valence shell is ejected out easily, and The Non-Metals have high electron affinity which means that they attract an electron with greater force because they need one electron to complete their octet.

<h2>_____________________________________</h2><h2>Question:</h2>

Question has given two atoms Potassium and chlorine. Potassium(Group 1) is metal, Chlorine(Group 7) is non metal. As you can se that there is only one electron in the outer shell of Potassium "K" and Chlorine need only one electron to complete its outer shell so Potassium will give its electron to Chlorine. Due to this reason K will become positive and Cl will become negative and they will both attract eachother forming ionic bond.

So the answer is Option C: Electron will be transferred from the potassium to the chlorine atom.

Define the term inertia

n200080 [17]

Answer:

Explanation:

Enertia is an integral part of Newton's first law of motion.

It is the tendency of an object to <u>stay at rest</u> or <u>to continue moving</u> until and unless <u>any external unbalanced force</u>, (like, applied force or force of tension or frictional force ) is applied to either move it from rest or change its speed(in other words, accelerate it!!).

Example below, is of ball at rest (fig1) and if this ball is moving straight on a frictionless surface(like ice) it will keep moving!! until, we push it or pull it.

Assume an original volume of blood of one deciliter (100 ml). if 5 ml of oxygen diffuses into the blood, 100 ml will be its final volume.

A tissue is made up of white blood cells, platelets, red blood cells, and other elements suspended in a liquid. Blood transports waste away and delivers nutrients and oxygen to the tissues. The entire amount of fluid moving through the heart's arteries, capillaries, veins, venules, and chambers is referred to as blood volume. Red blood cells (erythrocytes), white blood cells (leukocytes), platelets, and plasma are the elements that give blood volume.

The amount of water and sodium ingested, expelled by the kidneys into the urine, and lost through the digestive system, lungs, and skin determines blood volume. The amounts of salt and water that are consumed and excreted vary greatly.

Anabolic reactions _______ bonds, whereas catabolic reactions __________ bonds. A. decrease; increase. B. break; make C. weaken;

nexus9112 [7]

Answer:

The corrext answer is E. make; break

Explanation:

In living organisms, the metabolism is either anabolic or catabolic where anabolic metabolism is energy consuming and catabolic metabolism is eneegy releasesing. It should however be noted that anabolic reaction builds or biosynthesize new mollecular structures while catabolic reaction breaks down complex structure bonds into simple structures

The braking down of bonds in catabolic reations realeses energy to sustain the anabolic rection process for the formation of new bonds
