Sodium and Chlorine readily form a compound called sodium chloride. Why might these atoms want to chemically bond? Bonding raises their energy states.

Bonding helps them deal with the challenges of life.

Bonding helps them get to know each other better.

Bonding helps them to have a stable number of electrons.

Four different thermometers were used to measure the temperature of a sample of pure boiling water. the measurements are recorded in the table below. thermometer temperature reading 1 temperature reading 2 temperature reading 3 w 100.1°c 99.9°c 96.9°c x 100.4°c 102.3°c 101.4°c y 90.0°c 95.2°c 98.6°c z 90.8°c 90.6°c 90.7°c the actual boiling point of pure water is 100.0°c. what can be concluded from the data about the reliability and validity of the thermometers?
