The resistance = B. 10 Ω

<h3>Further explanation </h3>

Electric current (symbolized by the letter "i) is the amount of charge flowing in the conductor of each unit of time

The international standard unit of electric current is Coulomb/second or Ampere (A).

Electric current is also a ratio between the voltage and the amount of resistance at the conductor.

Can be formulated

$\large{\boxed{\bold{I=\frac{V}{R}}}$

V = Voltage (volts)

R = resistance (ohms)

This formula is also known as Ohm's Law, which states that

<em>the amount of current flowing is directly proportional to the voltage and inversely proportional to the resistance. </em>

The current is 1.5 amperes and the voltage is 15-V, so :

$\tt I=1.5~A\\\\V=15~V$

The resistance :

$\tt R=\dfrac{V}{I}\\\\R=\dfrac{15}{1.5}\\\\R=\boxed{\bold{10~ohm}}$

The fluoride rinse in dental offices usually contains sodium fluoride. Sodium fluoride can be prepared from the reaction between

Bad White [126]

The chemical reaction in which number of atoms of each element present in the reactant side is equal to the number of atoms of that element in product side, such reactions are said to be a balanced chemical reaction.

The chemical symbol for sodium is $Na$ .

The chemical symbol for fluorine gas is $F_2$ .

The chemical symbol for sodium fluoride is $NaF$

The sodium fluoride is prepared from the reaction between sodium metal and fluorine gas can be written as:

$Na (s)+F_2(g) \rightarrow NaF(s)$

The above reaction is not balanced as the number of fluorine atoms are not same on reactant and product side. So, in order to balance the reaction we will multiply $Na$ with 2 on reactant side and $NaF$ with 2 on product side. Thus, the balanced reaction will be:

$2Na (s)+F_2 (g)\rightarrow 2NaF(s)$
