<u>Answer:</u>
<u>For a:</u> The chemical equation for the dissolution of sodium carbonate is 
<u>For b:</u> The net acid-base reaction is 
<u>Explanation:</u>
Dissolution reaction is defined as the reaction in which a solid compound gets dissolved in water to form aqueous solution.
The chemical equation for the dissolution of sodium carbonate follows:
Ionization reaction is defined as the reaction in which an ionic compound dissociates into its ions when dissolved in aqueous solution.
The chemical equation for the ionization of sodium carbonate follows:
Now, the anion formed which is 
reacts with water to form conjugate acid.
The chemical equation for the reaction of anion with water follows:
Hence, the net acid-base reaction of the anion formed and water is written above.
Answer:
a.
Explanation:
Assuming that Liquid X is considered to possess a greater viscosity as well as higher surface tension than liquid Y. Then, liquid X will tend to harbour more pressure inside the liquid.
In addition to that, the greater the surface tension, the greater the force required to expand the liquid's surface area.
This in turn makes the force required to make the loop 5% wider to be greater in FX rather than FY.
Thus, option a is the correct answer.
Answer:
Explanation:
Air pollutants also affect the biosphere in turn. Ozone and acid deposition suppress plant growth; meanwhile, aerosols and their indirect effects on clouds decrease total photosynthetically active radiation (PAR) while increasing the diffuse fraction.
Answer:
accretion
Explanation:
the coming together and cohesion of matter under the influence of gravitation to form larger bodies.
