the answer to your question is A
x is the chemical symbol of the element and it must correspond to the atomic number
Answer:
Explanation:
1) Chemical formula of sodium carbonate: <em>Na₂CO₃</em>
2) Ratio of carbon atoms:
- The number of atoms of C in the unit formula Na₂CO₃ is the subscript for the atom, which is 1 (since it is not written).
Hence, the ratio is 1 C atom / 1 Na₂CO₃ unit formula.
This is, there is 1 atom of carbon per each unit formula of sodium carbonate.
3) Calculate the number of moles in 1.773 × 10⁷ carbon atoms
- Divide by Avogadro's number: 6.022 × 10²³ atoms / mol
- number C moles = 1.773 × 10⁷ atoms / (6.022 × 10²³ atoms/mol)
- number C moles = 2.941 × 10⁻¹⁷ mol
Since, the ratio is 1: 1, the number of moles of sodium carbonate is the same number of moles of carbon atoms.
Explanation:
Adhesion means the ability to stick on the surface of another substance.
Water exhibits adhesive forces due to which it is able to stick to the glass. Due to adhesive forces water spreads over the surface of glass and sticks to it.
These adhesive forces between the glass and water enough that it deforms the spherical shape of water molecules and help them stick to the surface of glass. As a result, adhesive forces overcome the repulsion between like molecules.
Hence, water is able to “stick” to the side of glass due to strong adhesive forces.
