Scratching causes cracks and crevices on the surface of the flask (though microscopically). These will act as favorable sites for nucleation, which leads to the formation of crystals.

Explanation:
The valence electrons are electrons found on the valence (outermost) shell of an atom.
When an atoms form compounds, there is an exchange of valence electrons between the atoms of one element and the atoms of another element.
Let us consider a typical example, sodium has one valence electron and chlorine has seven valence electrons. This means that chlorine needs one electron to complete its octet while sodium needs to release one electron in order to attain the octet structure.
So, sodium gives out its one electron and becomes a stable sodium ion and chlorine accepts that electron and becomes a stable chloride ion. This is how the compound sodium chloride is formed.
About 6.5x10^22 molecules.
(5g C2H5OH)x(1 mol C2H5OH/46g C2H5OH)x(6.02x10^23 molecules C2H5OH/1 mol C2H5OH)=(3.01E24)/46=6.5x10^22.

Answer:
Mixing water and sugar produces a mixture that is called a solution. In chemistry labs, this is often an experiment used to demonstrate the solubility of a solute in a solvent. In this experiment, the solute is sugar, and water is the solvent.
