21 Find the amount of nitrogen and oxygen present in 1 liter of air. Units should be in milliliters
![Page 23: Atmosphere Grade: «9th» Subject: Physical Science Date:](https://reader035.vdocuments.mx/reader035/viewer/2022062408/56649f0c5503460f94c20132/html5/thumbnails/23.jpg)
22. Cold air has a greater density than warm air. So why does a basketball not bounce as high when it is cold out?
because the air becomes more dense inside the basketball. Air particles closer together. So ball is underinflated and less bouncy. Need to add more air23. How can improving air quality lead to lower health costs?
lead to lower respiratory allergies and respiratory problems and diseases. Less doctor visits, prescriptions, and medical care.

24. Compare and Contrast a mercury and aneroid barometer.
both measure changes in air pressure. mercury has a tall glass tube that rests in a dish of mercury. air pressure pushes down on mercury in dish and forces mercury up in tube. aneroid barometer is air-tight chamber with thin flexible sides that move in and out with changes in air pressure

25. How is ozone good and bad for life on Earth?Good ozone is found in stratosphere - protects life
from dangerous radiation from Sunbad ozone is caused by air pollution - dangerous
to health, harms plants, and causes other kinds of damage
26. Why do pilots where oxygen masks at high altitudes?
because air has low pressure and density. It makes it hard to breathe in enough oxygen

27. How could you used an inflated balloon to show decreasing volume results in an increase in pressure?
Squeezing the balloon decreases the volume causing the air pressure to increase inside the balloon - balloon may burst
