Make a list of the number of cars, jeeps, tricycle, and even trucks you've seen on your way to school. On a Decision Making Chart, answer the question, "Does the volume of traffic affect the air quality in my local community?" Write your reasons for saying YES on the Reasons for column, and the reasons for saying NO on the Reasons Against column. At the bottom of a chart, make a position by writing your decision on the same question.

Refraction is the bending of light (it also happens with sound, water and other waves) as it passes from one transparent substance into another. This bending by refraction makes it possible for us to have lenses, magnifying glasses, prisms and rainbows. Even our eyes depend upon this bending of light. Hope this helps!
Answer: On losing 6 moles of water, cobalt chloride forms unstable violet-coloured ions, before generating its stable blue-coloured anhydrous form.
Explanation:
The hydrated cobalt chloride loses its 6 water of crystallization, then dissociates into ions: cobalt ions and chlorine ions that appear violet, and quickly combined to form the stable anhydrous Cobalt chloride with blue colour.
Answer:
They are classified as METALS.
Explanation:
Elements are simple substances that cannot be chemically broken down into smaller substances. Based on different characteristics, they are classified into 3 namely:
- metals
- non metals and
- metalloid( mainly act as semi- conductor).
METALS are the type of elements that loses electrons to form positive ion, that is, they are electropositive elements. They are distinguished by the following characteristics:
- LUSTROUS: they have the ability to reflect light from its surface.
- At room temperature: Metals are solid are room temperature with the exception of Mercury which is liquid at room temperature.
- They react and form Basic Compounds
- Great conductor: most metals are great conductors of heat and electricity because they possess free electrons.
- Melting Point: they have high melting points.
