Water molecules consist of 2 Hydrogen and 1 Oxygen atom. They are bonded by a polar covalent bond, meaning the electrons shared by the covalanet bonds are not evenly distributed. Oxygen is more electronegative than Hydrogen and will pull the electrons from its bonds with Hydrogen closer to itself. Thus results in a partial positive dipole on the Hydrogen of the water molecule and a partial negative dipole on the Oxygen of the water molecule. These partial charges allow water to hydrogen bond with one another through a process called cohesion.
I would say that the most likely environment for these two rock types to be ridge formers would be an arid climate like a desert where there was little water to dissolve. Also, even in a normal temperate environment, dolomite can form a very resistant ridge or cliff former as is the case with the Palliser Formation in Banff Park which forms a pronounced cliff which is very extensive.
Hello!!
In the human digestive system, food enters the mouth and mechanical digestion of the food starts by the action of mastication (chewing), a form of mechanical digestion, and the wetting contact of saliva.
hope this helps!!

Answer:
Two-element compounds are usually ionic when one element is a metal and the other is a non-metal.
Explanation:
sodium chloride: NaCl, with Na+ and Cl- ions
lithium nitride: Li3N, with Li+ and N3- ions
magnesium oxide: MgO, with Mg2+ and O2- ions
calcium phosphide: Ca3P2, with Ca2+ and P3- ions
