The following classes could not be instantiated: - com.google.android.gms.ads

<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
    android:id="@+id/adView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="50dp"
    ads:adSize="BANNER"
    ads:adUnitId="ca-app-pub-32763440xxxxxxxxxxxx" />

When I add this code in the Graphical Layout turns out this error and does not install the application on the device. How can I solve this problem?

The following classes could not be instantiated:
  - com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView (Open Class, Show Error Log)
  See the Error Log (Window > Show View) for more details.

Make sure you have the right xml namespace defined in your layout:

Thus, xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto":

<com.google.android.gms.ads.AdView
    xmlns:ads="http://schemas.android.com/apk/res-auto"
    android:id="@+id/adView"
    android:layout_width="match_parent"
    android:layout_height="50dp"
    ads:adSize="BANNER"
    ads:adUnitId="ca-app-pub-32763440xxxxxxxxxxxx" />

In the manifest's application tag, don't forget to add:

<activity android:name="com.google.android.gms.ads.AdActivity" 
android:configChanges="keyboard|keyboardHidden|orientation|screenLayout|uiMode|screenSize|smallestScreenSize"/>`

<meta-data android:name="com.google.android.gms.version"
       android:value="@integer/google_play_services_version"/>
