How does the noble gas notation work ?

In explanation

Hope it helps

Explanatination:

Noble gas notation is used to summarize the electron configuration of an element while providing the most relevant information about the valence electrons of that element. The noble gases are helium, neon, argon, krypton, xenon, and radon and are found in the last column of the periodic table.

Ex: sodiums noble gas notation would be

[Ne] 3s^1

In electron configuration it would be

1s^2, 2s^2, 2p^6, 3s^1

yes it is balanced

the best answer is d because the strong cohesion is caused by the ability of water molecules to undergo hydrogen bonding.

a is incorrect because when water solidifies, it becomes   ice, which expands and occupies a bigger volume for the same mass of water in its liquid state.

b is incorrect because water has high surface tension. besides bonding to itself it hydrogen bonds to other molecules at the top decreasing possibility for breaking of attractive forces.

c is incorrect because the water molecule has oxygen which is highly electronegative and so pulls the electron pair towards itself creating a dipole moment, making the molecule polar.

e is incorrect because water has strong adhesion, ability to stick to other molecules such as glass because of this molecules having stronger hydrogen bonding than water.
