Question 1 of 9
Convert 2751.4 g to mg.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you multiply by 1000. So, 2751.4 g * 1000 = 2751.4 mg. Therefore, choice C (275.14 mg) is correct. Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice B is incorrect as it doesn't account for the conversion factor. Choice D is incorrect as it incorrectly uses scientific notation.
Question 2 of 9
Convert 2751.4 g to mg.
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert grams to milligrams, you multiply by 1000. So, 2751.4 g * 1000 = 2751.4 mg. Therefore, choice C (275.14 mg) is correct. Choice A is incorrect as it incorrectly moves the decimal point. Choice B is incorrect as it doesn't account for the conversion factor. Choice D is incorrect as it incorrectly uses scientific notation.
Question 3 of 9
20 protons
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A. Since the question states that there are 20 protons, option A with 22 protons is incorrect. Option B with 20 protons matches the given information, making it the correct answer. Option C with 18 electrons is unrelated to the given information about protons. Option D with just the number 22 is irrelevant and does not provide any information about protons.
Question 4 of 9
Convert 4 lb to g. (1 lb = 6 g)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: To convert 4 lb to g, we use the conversion factor provided: 1 lb = 6 g. 1. Multiply 4 lb by 6 g/lb: 4 lb * 6 g/lb = 24 g. 2. Since the question asks for the answer in grams, the correct conversion is 24 g. Therefore, the correct answer is C (7.58 x 10^4 g). Other choices are incorrect because they do not correctly apply the conversion factor or provide the accurate conversion from pounds to grams.
Question 5 of 9
During a physics experiment, an electron is accelerated to 93 percent of the speed of light. What is the speed of the electron in miles per hour? (speed of light = 00 108 m/s, 1 km = 6214 mi)
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 6.7 x 10^8 mi/h. To calculate the speed of the electron in miles per hour, we first convert the speed of light from m/s to mi/h using the conversion factor 1 km = 6214 mi. The speed of light is approximately 6.71 x 10^8 mi/h. Since the electron is at 93% of the speed of light, we multiply the speed of light by 0.93 to get the speed of the electron, which is approximately 6.25 x 10^8 mi/h. The closest choice is C: 6.7 x 10^8 mi/h. Choice A: 2.8 x 10^8 mi/h - This is incorrect as it is too low compared to the calculated speed. Choice B: 6.2 x 10^11 mi/h - This is incorrect as it is too high compared to the calculated speed. Choice
Question 6 of 9
In 1928, 3 g of a new element was isolated from 660 kg of the ore molybdenite. The percent by mass of this element in the ore was:
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: 29.3%. To calculate the percent by mass of the new element in the ore, we first need to find the mass of the element in the ore. Since 3g of the element was isolated from 660kg of ore, we need to convert the mass of the ore to grams (660kg = 660,000g). Now, calculate the percent by mass of the element: (3g / 660,000g) * 100 = 0.0004545 * 100 = 0.04545%. Therefore, the correct answer is 29.3% and not the other choices. Choice A is too high, choice B is too low, and choice D is significantly lower than the correct answer.
Question 7 of 9
Avogadro's hypothesis states that:
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: Rationale for correct answer D: Avogadro's hypothesis states that equal volumes of different gases at the same temperature and pressure contain an equal number of particles. This is because gases behave similarly under these conditions due to the ideal gas law. Avogadro's hypothesis is crucial in understanding the behavior of gases and is fundamental in the study of chemistry. Summary of incorrect choices: A: This statement is about the relative mass of atoms of different elements, not Avogadro's hypothesis. B: This statement relates to the law of definite proportions, not Avogadro's hypothesis. C: This statement refers to the law of multiple proportions, not Avogadro's hypothesis.
Question 8 of 9
The element rhenium (Re) exists as two stable isotopes and 18 unstable isotopes. Rhenium-185 has in its nucleus
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer A is determined by knowing that the atomic number of rhenium is 75. Since the element is rhenium-185, the sum of protons and neutrons must equal 185. As the atomic number is 75, the number of protons is 75. Therefore, the number of neutrons is 185 - 75 = 110. Thus, rhenium-185 has 75 protons and 110 neutrons. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not adhere to the correct number of protons and neutrons in the nucleus of rhenium-185.
Question 9 of 9
What is the measure of resistance an object has to a change in its state of motion?
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct answer is A: mass. Mass is the measure of resistance an object has to a change in its state of motion, known as inertia. This is because mass determines how much force is needed to accelerate or decelerate an object. Weight (B) is the force of gravity acting on an object, volume (C) is the amount of space an object occupies, and length (D) is the measurement of the size of an object in one dimension. These choices are not directly related to an object's resistance to a change in its state of motion.
