Answer:

The earth moves two ways. It spins and it moves around the sun. The spinning of the earth is called rotation. It takes the earth about 24 hours, or one day, to make one complete rotation.

Explanation:

The Earth's Three Motions. The Earth turns (rotation around the polar axis), goes along on its orbit (revolution around the Sun), swings smoothly as an unbalanced spinning top (equinoctial precession).

Because the Earth rotates on its axis, circulating air is deflected toward the right in the Northern Hemisphere and toward the left in the Southern Hemisphere. This deflection is called the Coriolis effect. Click the image for a larger view. Coastal currents are affected by local winds.

In a chemical reaction, the total charge of the reactants must be

MA_775_DIABLO [31]

the same with that of products

Explanation:

In a chemical reaction, the total charge of the reactants must be the same with that of products.

Charges must be conserved or balanced in chemical reactions.

In both acidic and basic/neutral medium electrons are used to balance the charge.
The appropriate number of electrons is added to the side with a larger charge.
One electron is used to balance each positive charge.
This ensures that the sum of charges on both sides the same.

yKpoI14uk [10]

The gas planets usually have extremely high gravitational pulls, the surface isn't solid (since its a gas planet), and gas planets are larger than the inner planets.
<span>Similarities- These planets all have moons and they both revolve around the sun (obviously).

Hope this helps.</span>

Which element could provide one atom to make an ionic bond with nitrogen?

aev [14]

Answer:

boron

aluminum

gallium

indium

thallium

Explanation:

Any of these could work. Nitrogen has 5 valence electrons so you just needed to pick an element that has 3 valence electrons that nitrogen could borrow. This periodic table shows valence electron counts:
