Answer:
Cohesive forces are greater than adhesive forces
Step-by-step explanation:
The attractive forces between water molecules and the wax on a freshly-waxed car (adhesive forces) are quite weak.
However, there are strong attractive forces (cohesive forces) between water molecules.
The water molecules are only weakly attracted to the wax, so the cohesive forces pull the water molecules together to form beads
.

Explanation:
Hello!
In this case, since isotopes of the same element have the same number of protons and electrons but different atomic mass, we can compute the number of neutrons by subtracting the number of protons to the atomic mass of the isotope; thus, for Ga-69 and Ga-71 (rounded up to whole numbers), we obtain:
Best regards!
- if the compound is made of just two elements, if one is a metal (ie belongs to any of groups 1, 2 or 3) and the other element a non metal, (ie belongs to group 5, 6 or 7) then the compound is most likely to be an ionic compound. For example NaCl, MgO
- If the compound is made of identical non metalic elements as in O2, Cl2 then the compound is covalent
- If the compoud is made of just two elements that are both non metals such as in SO2, CO, NO, CCl4, the compound is covalent
- If the compound is made up of more than two elements, such as in HNO3, Na2CO3, CuSO4.5H2O, you may need to break the compound into dissociating parts. You will see that, the compounds are ionic.
- Hydrocarbons, compounds containing only hydrogen and carbon of varying molecular size are all covalent. Examples are C2H6, C2H4, C2H2
Note that there could be some little exceptions to the examples given. Mostly with first members of every group because of their small size which make them show substantial deviations from group behavior. For example HCl is covalent not ionic.
