Answer:

The polar groups are the ones that provide the hydrophilic character.

Explanation:

In an emulsifying agent, there will be always a part that is hydrophyllic (the polar part) and another part that is lipophyllic (the non - polar part). Depending the proportion of each group the emulsifying agent is consider with a value that goes from 0 to 20, that means, if is more useful to dissolve water into oil or the other way around.

Since in this chemical groups, there is a lot of charges, depending in the reaction the pH could change a little bit by the release of positive or negative charges of the emulsifying agent.

Consumption of a synthetic material being increased, leads to an associated negative impacts to Earth required to produce it is a True statement.

<h3>What is a Synthetic material?</h3>

There are the materials which are made by humans through chemical synthesis which are usually done in factories.

The production of this type of materials leads to the emission of chemicals and other gases which are harmful and negatively impacts the environment.

First we must write a balanced chemical equation for this reaction

$Na_2CO_3 _(_a_q_)+ 2HNO_3_(_a_q_) \implies 2NaNO_3_(_s_) + CO_2_(_g_) + H_2O_(_l_)$

The mole ratio for the reaction between $HNO_3$ and $Na_2CO_3$ is 1:2. This means 1 moles of $Na_2CO_3$ will neutralize 2 moles $HNO_3$ . Now we find the moles of each reactant based on the mass and molar mass.
