Molecules containing a large number of hydroxyl groups are soluble in water. Molecules which contains the functional group hydroxyl or -OH are called alcohols. Water and alcohols share some similar properties. One would be its polar properties. Alcohols are polar molecules as they contain a partial positive and partial negative end. Making them to be miscible in water. The hydroxyl groups in alcohol are capable of forming hydrogen bonds with the water molecules and with other alcohols.  As the number of the hydroxyl groups increases, the polarity of the molecule would also increase making it more soluble in water.

Consider the hypothetical atom x. if the molecular formula for lithium carbonate is li2co3 and the formula of x chloride is xcl3
eduard
First step is to determine the valency of each of x and CaCO3 from the given compounds:

1- As for Li2CO3: we can deduce that the valency of lithium is one while that of CO3 is two

2- As for XCl3: we can deduce that the valency of chlorine is one while that of X is three

Second step is to write the required compound: 
X : CO3  (elements involved)
3 : 2        (write the valency of each)
Then write the positive ion (X) followed by the valency of the negative ion (2) and then the negative ion (CO3) followed by the valency of the positive ion (3).
The final x carbonate is written as: X2(CO3)3

The distance from the trough of one wave to the trough of another wave is wave amplitude
Alexxandr [17]
This is actually incorrect, the distance as stated above either from trough to trough or from crest to crest within a corresponding wave, would be referred or called as the wavelength of the given wave.
