The answer which best explains why water is able to "stick" to the side of glass is the following one - <span>Strong adhesive forces exist between glass and the water molecules.</span>

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.

Answer:

\boxed{\text{40 mol Al}}

Explanation:

            Al₂O₃ ⟶ 2Al + 3O₂

n/mol:     20

\text{Moles of Al} = \text{20 mol Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$}\times \dfrac{\text{2 mol Al}}{\text{1 mol Al$_{2}$O$_{3}$}}= \textbf{40 mol Al}\\\text{You can produce }\boxed{\textbf{40 mol Al}}

Draw the 2 resonance structures of Malachite Green, and indicate which one is the equivalent contributor, and which one is the m
Yuri [45]

The two structures at the right of the image are the greatest contributors to the resonance structure of malachite green.

<h3>What is resonance structure?</h3>

In some cases, one single structure is insufficient to explain the properties of a substance. Now, we know that in such cases we have to invoke more than one structure in order to efficiently discuss the chemistry of the compounds in question.

In this case, we can see from the image that the three structures of malachite green are all resonance structures. However, the two structures at the right hand side are the greatest contributors because they are more conjugated. Hence, the two structures at the right of the image are the greatest contributors to the resonance structure of malachite green.
