Pollution is always a consequence of exploitation of resources.
 
  What will be an ideal response?

Question 2

In the classical Drude model of electricity, resistance occurs because the charge carriers, which are accelerated due to electric forces, collide with the atoms of the metal wire, causing them to bounce backward.
 
  What should you expect the Drude model to predict for the relative resistance of two materials, one of which has twice as many atoms in each cubic meter of material?

Answer to Question 1

There must be a disturbance locally to exploit a resource. There will at least be a
local pollution problem for most extraction unless great care is exercised. Some examples
of successful reduction of pollution may include pumping of saline water from oil wells
back into the formation, pumping mineral-laden brine back underground after exploiting
hot, wet steam, etc. These shining examples are currently the exception.

Answer to Question 2

Because there are more opportunities for collisions with twice as many atoms in
each volume, we would expect the resistivity (and the resistance) to be double that of the
material with fewer atoms per cubic meter.

The use of salicylates dates back 2,500 years to Hippocrates’s recommendation of willow bark (from which a salicylate is derived) as an aid to the pains of childbirth. However, overdosage of salicylates can harm body fluids, electrolytes, the CNS, the GI tract, the ears, the lungs, the blood, the liver, and the kidneys and cause coma or death.

Only one in 10 cancer deaths is caused by the primary tumor. The vast majority of cancer mortality is caused by cells breaking away from the main tumor and metastasizing to other parts of the body, such as the brain, bones, or liver.

When Gabriel Fahrenheit invented the first mercury thermometer, he called "zero degrees" the lowest temperature he was able to attain with a mixture of ice and salt. For the upper point of his scale, he used 96°, which he measured as normal human body temperature (we know it to be 98.6° today because of more accurate thermometers).
