Question 1 of 9

The cargo of uranium hexafluoride weighed kg and was contained in 30 drums, each containing L of UF . What is the density (g/mL) of uranium hexafluoride?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the density, we first calculate the total volume of uranium hexafluoride. Since each drum contains 15 L, the total volume is 30 drums * 15 L/drum = 450 L. Next, convert the mass from kg to g (1 kg = 1000 g). Density = mass/volume. Density = (mass in g) / (volume in mL). Since the mass is in g, we need to convert the volume from L to mL (1 L = 1000 mL). Density = (mass in g) / (volume in mL) = (mass in g) / (volume in L * 1000). Density = (mass in g) / (450 L * 1000) = (mass in g) / 450000 mL. Therefore, the density is the mass divided by 450000. The correct answer is C: 2.25 g/mL. Choice A is incorrect as it is too low

Question 2 of 9

The pressure of the earth's atmosphere at sea level is . What is the pressure when expressed in ? (54 cm = 1 in., 205 lb = 1 kg)

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 2.62 × 10^5. To convert atmospheric pressure from inches of mercury to pascals, we use the conversion factor 1 in. = 2.54 cm and the standard atmospheric pressure at sea level (29.92 in. Hg). First, convert 29.92 in. Hg to cm Hg (29.92 in. × 2.54 cm/in.), then convert cm Hg to Pa (1 atm = 101325 Pa). Follow these steps to get the correct answer. Choice B (1.03 × 10^7) is incorrect as it is too high. Choice C (5.02 × 10^4) is incorrect as it is too low. Choice D (4.30 100) is not a valid numerical expression.

Question 3 of 9

You measure water in two containers: a 10-mL graduated cylinder with marks at every mL, and a 1-mL pipet marked at every 1 mL. If you have some water in each of the containers and add them together, to what decimal place could you report the total volume of water?

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: The correct answer is C: 1 mL. When adding volumes measured in different containers, you should report the result to the least precise measurement scale, which is the 1 mL pipet in this case. The graduated cylinder measures to the nearest mL, so the total volume should be rounded to the nearest whole mL. Reporting to a decimal place of 0.01 mL or 0.1 mL would imply a level of precision greater than what the equipment can provide. Choice D is incorrect as it exceeds the maximum volume capacity of the containers and is not relevant to the precision of the measurements.

Question 4 of 9

Which statement is not correct?

Correct Answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because gamma rays are not light but a form of electromagnetic radiation with high energy. Gamma rays have no charge and are produced from the nucleus. Choice A is correct as an alpha particle is heavier than an electron. Choice B is correct as an alpha particle has a 2+ charge. Choice C is correct as these are types of radioactive emissions.

Question 5 of 9

A 0 mL sample of glycerol has a mass of 2 grams. What is the mass of a 57-mL sample of glycerol?

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: To find the mass of a 57-mL sample of glycerol, we use the given mass-to-volume ratio. Since 0 mL has a mass of 2 grams, the mass-to-volume ratio is 2g/0mL = 2g/mL. Therefore, for a 57-mL sample, we multiply 2g/mL by 57 mL to get 114 grams, which corresponds to answer choice B. Choice A (8.8 g) is incorrect because it does not align with the calculated mass of 114 g for a 57-mL sample. Choices C (2.9 104 g) and D (72 g) are also incorrect as they are not consistent with the mass-to-volume ratio of 2g/mL provided in the question.

Question 6 of 9

A quantitative observation

Correct Answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A because a quantitative observation must contain both a number and a unit to provide a specific measurement. This ensures the observation is precise and can be accurately communicated. The other choices are incorrect because B is vague, C is not a requirement for quantitative observations, and D is not true as quantitative observations can also be obtained through measurements, not just experimentation.

Question 7 of 9

In March 2008, gold reached a milestone value of $1000 per troy ounce. At that price, what was the cost of a gram of gold? (1 troy ounce = 10 g)

Correct Answer: C

Rationale: To find the cost of a gram of gold at $1000 per troy ounce, we divide $1000 by 10 (since 1 troy ounce = 10g). This gives us $100 per gram. Therefore, the correct answer is C: between $10 and $50. Option A is incorrect as it is less than $1, option B is incorrect as it is between $1 and $10, and option D is incorrect as it is between $50 and $100.

Question 8 of 9

We generally report a measurement by recording all of the certain digits plus uncertain digit(s).

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: Step 1: In measurement, certain digits are the numbers that are known for sure. Step 2: Uncertain digits are the last digit that is estimated or measured. Step 3: We record all the certain digits and one uncertain digit to indicate the precision of the measurement. Step 4: Choice A is incorrect because we do include uncertain digit(s) in the measurement. Step 5: Choice C and D are incorrect as including two or three uncertain digits would provide excessive precision beyond what is known for certain.

Question 9 of 9

The formula of water, H O, suggests:

Correct Answer: B

Rationale: The formula for water is H₂O, indicating there are two hydrogen atoms and one oxygen atom per molecule. This is because the subscript 2 in H₂ represents two hydrogen atoms, and O represents one oxygen atom. Therefore, choice B is correct. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not accurately represent the composition of water molecules. Choice A suggests twice as much mass of hydrogen than oxygen, which is not true. Choice C suggests twice as much mass of oxygen than hydrogen, which is also incorrect. Choice D implies there are two oxygen atoms in a water molecule, which is inaccurate.
