First law of motion says : A body remain in the state of rest or of uniform motion unless no external force is applied . So when ball rolls on ground, friction force comes in existence due to friction between ball and ground. Due to this force ball stop (not on its own but by friction force) according...

It is due to the frictional force that come into the picture. Frictional force act in the opposite direction of force.. So at some point the ball will stop.

Which has more number of atoms, 100 grams of sodium or 100 grams of iron (given, atomic mass of Na = 23 u, Fe = 56 u)?
100 gm of sodium will have (Given mass / molar mass )x Avogadro's Number = (100/23) x 6.022 x 10^23 = 2.62 x 10^24 atoms 100 gms of Iron will have (100/56) x 6.022 x 10^23 = 1.07 x 10^24 atoms So 100 gms of Sodium will have more atoms.
