Answer:

Lighter, positively charged particles form at the top of the cloud. Heavier, negatively charged particles sink to the bottom of the cloud. When the positive and negative charges grow large enough, a giant spark - lightning - occurs between the two charges within the cloud.

Where do you find an elements energy levels
ahrayia [7]
You can find an element's amount of energy level by determining their place on the periodic table. An element's amount of energy levels are represented by which period/ row they are in. For example, Calcium has 4 energy levels. I know this because it is in the fourth period on the table.

Hope this helps!

A mover packs books, CDs, and DVDs into a moving box. If the box contains 6.5 kg of books, 1.5 kg of CDs, and 2.0 kg of DVDs, wh
mariarad [96]
Given: 
<span>M1 = 6.5 kg of books
</span><span>M2 = 1.5 kg of CDs
</span><span>M3 = 2.0 kg of DVDs

Required: percent by mass of each object

Solution:
First, we calculate the total mass.

M = 6.5 kg + 1.5 kg + 2.0 kg =  10 kg

Percent by mass is calculated by getting the ration of the mass of an object and the total mass multiplied by 100 to get the percent.

%M1 = 6.5 / 10 x 100 = 65%
%M2 = 1.5/10 x 100 = 15%
%M3 = 2.0/10 x 100 = 20%</span>
