potassium and chloride is an ionic bond. The potassium becomes a cation and the chloride an anion. The potassium end of the molecule becomes slightly positive and the other end slightly negative. Na – sodium contains metallic bonding. It has a high melting due to the bonding and has strong bonds. Each sodium atom is being touched by eight other sodium atoms and they all share electrons between the nuclei and shells. The electrons can move freely within the sodium metal and therefore can conduct electricity

Why does snow melt in the sun at temperatures below freezing? The rate of snow melt is dependent on energy availability‚ which is mostly in the form of radiation. Cold snowpacks have a negative energy balance‚ but warming causes the snowpack to become isothermal and additional energy results in positive energy balance and melt. Daily snow melt in forested areas is considerably less than melt in open areas‚ as forests protect the snow cover from solar radiation and wind. Canopy warming can increase
