It is called convection. When warm air, or current, moves up and disperse outwards as cold air, or current, moves into the warmer region.
Answer:
Atoms of metal elements give away electrons in their reactions to form positive ions. The ions formed have a full outer electron shell, so are very stable.
Explanation:
To become stable, the metal atom wants to get rid of one or more electrons in its outer shell. ... Alternately, an atom that loses electrons becomes a positively charged ion (aka cations). The particles in an ionic compound are held together because there are oppositely charged particles that are attracted to one another.
The overall charge will be negative 1
Answer:
Potassium nitrate is a chemical compound with the chemical formula KNO3. It is an ionic salt of potassium ions K+ and nitrate ions NO3−, and is therefore an alkali metal nitrate. It occurs in nature as a mineral, niter (or nitre in the UK). It is a source of nitrogen, and nitrogen was named after niter.
Explanation:
Answer:
from one metallic element to a different nonmetallic element
Explanation:
For example NaCl is ionic compound in which Na metal donate electron to Cl non metal
