Actually, heavier objects fall faster. The difference is infinitesimal, but there is a tiny difference because more mass causes objects to fall faster (e.g. objects fall faster on earth than on the moon). On earth, the different rate of fall between heavier and lighter objects is negligible (because objects are tiny compared to the earth's mass), so objects of different weights fall at virtually the same rate. But not at exactly the same rate. Objects of different weights must accelerate at different rates because accel.
Neutron number of element X-110
Explanation: 153(Proton+Neutron)-43(Proton)= 110
The balanced equation will be 2HgO--->2Hg+O2
I think the correct answer would be that soil formation is impaired. It would have not that big of an impact to the society as compared to the other choices. Increase of pest populations would surely affect agriculture. Hindered water purification would affect the quality of groundwater. Also, increasing hole in the ozone surely affect everyone.
More than 4.2 million Americans aged 40 years and older are either legally blind (having best-corrected visual acuity of 6/60 or worse (=20/200) in the better-seeing eye) or are with low vision (having best-corrected visual acuity less than 6/12 (<20/40) in the better-seeing eye, excluding those who were categorized as being blind).
The leading causes of blindness and low vision in the United States are primarily age-related eye diseases such as age-related macular degeneration, cataract, diabetic retinopathy, and glaucoma. Other common eye disorders include amblyopia and strabismus.

Refractive Errors
Refractive Errors
Refractive errors are the most frequent eye problems in the United States. Refractive errors include myopia (near-sightedness), hyperopia (farsightedness), astigmatism (distorted vision at all distances), and presbyopia that occurs between age 40–50 years (loss of the ability to focus up close, inability to read letters of the phone book, need to hold newspaper farther away to see clearly) can be corrected by eyeglasses, contact lenses, or in some cases surgery. The National Eye Institute states that proper refractive correction could improve vision among 150 million Americans.
