PLZ HELP ME Which of these is an example of an example factor which affects the earths climate?
A - Decrease in the suns energy.
B - Warm and cold ocean currents.
C - Increase in atmospheric dioxide.
D - Release of dust during volcanic eruption

D- Release of dust during volcanic eruption

Explanation:

During major explosive eruptions huge amounts of volcanic gas, aerosol droplets, and ash are injected into the stratosphere. Injected ash falls rapidly from the stratosphere -- most of it is removed within several days to weeks -- and has little impact on climate change. But volcanic gases like sulfur dioxide can cause global cooling, while volcanic carbon dioxide, a greenhouse gas, has the potential to promote global warming.

a - decrease in the suns energy.

explanation:

although the other options do discuss climate, temperature, etc., the sun DIRECTLY influences the earth's climate and would most likely affect it on a larger scale. for example, warm and cold ocean currents would affect the temperature of the ocean and could touch bay cities or islands, but they would not dictate the overall climate of the earth :)

♡ hopefully my reply helped you come to an answer~ please keep in mind that my response is purely that... MY response! i still have lots to learn, so please correct/educate me if you have found otherwise ♡

explanation:

metals have excess of electrons whereas non-metals have deficiency of electrons. thus, in order to gain stability metals easily donate their electrons to the non-metals.

for example, electronic configuration of sodium is and electronic configuration of phosphorous is .

when a phosphorous atom and sodium atom combine together then sodium will donate is extra one electron to the phosphorous atom. as a result there will be formation of ionic bond between sodium and phosphorous.

the reaction will be as follows.

there, are three sodium sodium atoms and each of them will donate its one extra electron to phosphorous atom. thus, the sub-shell of phosphorous gets completely filled.  

thus, we can conclude that electrons are transferred from atoms of sodium to atoms of phosphorous. this transfer makes the sodium atoms donate one electron and the phosphorous atoms to gain one electron. as a result, the sodium and phosphorus atoms strongly attract each other.
