The Group 2 elements are known as the alkaline earth metals. They are reactive
metals. Atoms of Group 2 elements lose two electrons to form ions with a 2
charge. Research the reactions of Group 2 elements, then describe and explain
the pattern in reactivity down the group.

Air pressure is measured in pascals. for a professional american football game, the ball should be inflated to about 90,000 pascals. scientists studied the effects of air temperature on the pressure inside american footballs by taking these steps: 1. prepare 100 footballs. 2. measure each football's air pressure. 3. divide footballs into 10 groups. 4. place the groups in different lockers cooled to different air temperatures. 5. after 12 hours, remove the footballs from lockers. 6. measure each football's pressure again. 7. compare the new pressures to the starting pressures. what two terms best describe the variable "air pressure inside the football" in this experiment? independent, qualitative independent, quantitative dependent, qualitative dependent, quantitative
