I have several questions. I hope you will help me.

(1)Experiments showed that energy can change its form but cannot be
destroyed or created. And matter "too", it was decided, cannot be
destroyed or created.
In this sentence, can "either" be used instead of "too"?

(2)What compells men to want to invent? At times it is sheer necessity.
Is "because of" needed after "is"?

(3)Do you know "anywhere" that I can get a drink?
Is this sentence correct? I'm wondering why the adverb "anywhere"
is used.

I'd appreciate your help.

You could write it like this if you want to use either: And matter , it was decided cannot be destroyed or created either.(

(2)What compels men to want to invent? At times it is sheer necessity.

No


(3)Do you know "anywhere" that I can get a drink?

is used.

In this instance, it is used as a pronoun.
