HW (will also be posted) Use everything you've learned about the indicators of a chemical reaction and the law of conservation of mass to write a few sentences in the following RAFT assignment IN YOUR JOURNAL:
your Role: French Chemist Antoine Lavoisier
your Audience: the MSA lecture series audience
your Format: introduction to your lecture
your Topic: your work with the characteristics of chemical reactions which, among other things, led to the development of the law of conservation of mass
Write the introductory paragraphs that you'd use when speaking to the MSA students at OLHS, knowing that your lecture is timed perfectly with the introduction to this chemical reactions unit. Be sure to outline the importance and relevance of your work to chemists of all levels, and do your best to capture their interest for the rest of your lecture.

Find the average force from the graph and record that value below. We'll call this the ramp value.
Next use the force sensor again to lift the block from the floor straight up to the height of the chair. Find and record the average value of this force which we'll call the lifted value. Divide the ramp value by the lifted value. This will give you the mechanical advantage of the ramp.
default_response: MA =
