C. FLOOD STAGE is reached when the water level of a stream or river exceeds its natural banks.
Flood stage is a level at which a body of water's surface has risen to a sufficient level to cause sufficient inundation in areas that are not normally covered by water, causing inconvenience or a threat to life and/or property.
Answer with Explanation:
A candle relights when a match is held above the wick because its trail of smoke still contains some of the wax. When candles are burned, the heat of the flame turns the the wax (which is originally solid) into liquid (commonly near the wick) and then evaporates as gas. The vaporized wax actually protect the wick and this is the reason why it is not burned. So, when you put off a candle, the vaporized wax is still present near the wick. This, remember, holds heat and light energy. Thus, this explains why the candle can be relighted once you hold a match above the wick. It then allows the match to ignite.
Thus, this explains the answer.

Explanation:
For the chemical formula, you need to have enough of each atom so that the charge is zero.
Aluminum has a +3 charge, and fluorine has a -1 charge. Since the charge has to be zero, you need three fluorines, giving you AlF₃.
Barium has a +2 charge, and oxygen has a -2 charge. Since the charges are equal in magnitude but opposite in sign, you only need one of each atom giving you BaO.
The name of the ionic compound will be the metal and then the nonmetal. When putting the nonmetal in, change the ending to "-ide". For example "chlorine" would be "chloride.
CaCl₂ ==> calcium chloride
Ga₂S₃ ==> gallium sulfide
K₃N ==> potassium nitride
AlF₃ ==> aluminum fluoride
BaO ==> barium oxide
