Answer:
A Walk in the City
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.

When the charged balloon is brought near the wall, it repels some of the negatively charged electrons in that part of the wall. Therefore, that part of the wall is left repelled.
<u>Explanation</u>:
- Balloons don't stick to walls. However, if you rub the balloon on an appropriate piece of material such as clothing or a wall, electrons are pulled from the other material to the balloon.
- The balloon now as more electrons than normal and therefore has an overall negative charge. Two balloons like this will repel each other.
- The other material now has an overall positive charge. Because opposite charges attract, the balloon will now appear to stick to the other material. If you didn't rub the balloon first, it's charge would be neutral and it wouldn't stick to the wall.
Answer:
1. 31.25 mL
2. 1.98 g/L
3. 0.45 g/mL
Explanation:
For each of the problems, you need to perform unit conversions. You need to use the information given to you to convert to a specific unit.
1. You need volume (mL). You have density (g/mL) and mass (g). Divide mass by density. You will cancel out mL and be left with g.
(50.0 g)/(1.60 g/mL) = 31.25 mL
2. You are given grams and liters. You need to find density with units g/L. This means that you have to divide grams by liters.
(0.891 g)/(0.450 L) = 1.98 g/L
3. You have to find density again but this time with units g/mL. Divide the given mass by the volume.
(10.0 g)/(22.0 mL) = 0.45 g/mL
