Answer:

The rift valley formed when the crust pulled apart.

Explanation:

The Great Rift Valley in Africa formed when the crust pulled apart along a divergent margin.

  • Rift valley systems are produced within a continent at divergent margins within a plate.
  • The rifting system makes the earth in that region prone to frequent earthquakes as the continents continues pulling apart.
  • It results from the divergence of the Arabian plate and the Somalia/Nubian plate.
  • It is one of the longest rift valley systems on earth.

Compare and contrast the two types of bonds
stepan [7]

Answer:

An ionic bond is formed between a metal and a non-metal. Covalent bonding is a form of chemical bonding between two non metallic atoms which is characterized by the sharing of pairs of electrons between atoms and other covalent bonds.

Explanation:

There are two types of atomic bonds - ionic bonds and covalent bonds. They differ in their structure and properties. Covalent bonds consist of pairs of electrons shared by two atoms, and bind the atoms in a fixed orientation. Relatively high energies are required to break them (50 - 200 kcal/mol). Whether two atoms can form a covalent bond depends upon their electronegativity i.e. the power of an atom in a molecule to attract electrons to itself. If two atoms differ considerably in their electronegativity - as sodium and chloride do - then one of the atoms will lose its electron to the other atom. This results in a positively charged ion (cation) and negatively charged ion (anion). The bond between these two ions is called an ionic bond.
