Nursing Metric Conversions Questions

Question 1 of 9

Convert 3,540 liters to milliliters (mL).

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 3,540 liters 1,000 = 3,540,000 milliliters. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. A, C, and D are off by a factor of 1,000, as they do not account for the conversion factor between liters and milliliters.

Question 2 of 9

Convert 0.075 mg to micrograms.

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: To convert milligrams to micrograms, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, to convert 0.075 mg to mcg, you multiply 0.075 by 1000, giving you 75 mcg. The correct answer is not provided in the choices, and the correct conversion is 75 mcg, which is not listed as an option. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion factor. Choice D, 750 mcg, is a common mistake made by incorrectly adding a zero. It is important to remember that the conversion from milligrams to micrograms involves multiplying by 1000, not adding extra zeros.

Question 3 of 9

What is 0.025 mg converted to micrograms?

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert milligrams to micrograms, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, 0.025 mg is equal to 25 mcg. The correct conversion is obtained by recognizing that 1 milligram (mg) is equal to 1000 micrograms (mcg). Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert milligrams to micrograms. Choice B is 10 times the correct answer, choice C is 100 times less, and choice D is 100 times less than the correct conversion.

Question 4 of 9

How many pounds are in 1 ton?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 2000 pounds. A ton is equivalent to 2000 pounds. This is a standard conversion in the imperial system of measurement. Choice A, 1000 pounds, is incorrect as it represents half a ton. Choice C, 1500 pounds, and Choice D, 2500 pounds, are also incorrect as they do not match the correct conversion of 1 ton to 2000 pounds.

Question 5 of 9

What is the base unit for mass in the metric system?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The base unit for mass in the metric system is grams. Grams are the fundamental unit of mass in the metric system, representing smaller quantities than kilograms and tons. Milligrams are a smaller unit of mass, kilograms are a larger unit, and tons are even larger units. Therefore, the correct choice is grams.

Question 6 of 9

How many liters (L) are equal to 1 kiloliter?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert kiloliters to liters, you multiply by 1,000. Therefore, 1 kiloliter 1,000 = 1,000 liters. Choice A (100 liters) is incorrect because it represents only 1/10th of a kiloliter. Choice C (10 liters) is incorrect as it represents only 1/100th of a kiloliter. Choice D (10,000 liters) is incorrect as it is 10 times bigger than a kiloliter.

Question 7 of 9

What is 0.5 liters expressed in milliliters?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.5 liters x 1000 = 500 ml. Choice A (50 ml) is incorrect as it would be the conversion of 0.05 liters. Choice C (5 ml) is incorrect as it would be the conversion of 0.005 liters. Choice D (0.5 ml) is incorrect as it is the original measurement in milliliters, not the converted value from liters.

Question 8 of 9

Convert 0.5 centimeters to millimeters.

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: To convert centimeters to millimeters, you need to multiply by 10 since 1 centimeter equals 10 millimeters. Therefore, 0.5 centimeters is equal to 5 millimeters (0.5 * 10 = 5). Choice A, '5 mm,' is the correct answer. Choice B, '0.5 mm,' is incorrect as it would be equivalent to half a millimeter. Choice C, '50 mm,' is incorrect as it represents 50 millimeters, which would be the equivalent of 5 centimeters. Choice D, '0.05 mm,' is incorrect as it represents 0.05 millimeters, which is a fraction of 1 millimeter.

Question 9 of 9

How many millimeters are in 1 centimeter?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: '10 mm'. There are 10 millimeters in 1 centimeter. To convert centimeters to millimeters, you multiply by 10 because 1 centimeter is equivalent to 10 millimeters. Choice A '1 mm' is incorrect as it represents the size of 1 millimeter, not the conversion from centimeters to millimeters. Choice C '100 mm' is incorrect as it is the equivalent of 1 meter, not 1 centimeter. Choice D '1,000 mm' is incorrect as it is the equivalent of 1 meter, not 1 centimeter.
