Question 1 of 5
A species with 12 protons and 10 electrons is
Correct Answer: C
Rationale: The correct answer is C: Mg2+. A species with 12 protons must have an atomic number of 12, which corresponds to magnesium (Mg). The 10 electrons indicate that it has a 2+ charge, making it Mg2+. Choice A (Ne2+) is incorrect because neon (Ne) has an atomic number of 10, not 12. Choice B (Ti2+) is incorrect because titanium (Ti) has an atomic number of 22, not 12. Choice D (Ne2�) is incorrect because it suggests a negatively charged neon species, which is not possible with 10 electrons.
Question 2 of 5
The melting point of indium is 2�C. At 323�F, what is the physical state of indium?
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To determine the physical state of indium at 323�F, we convert the temperature to Celsius (323�F = 161.7�C). Since the melting point of indium is 2�C, which is lower than 161.7�C, indium would be in a liquid state at 323�F. The correct choice is B: Liquid. A: Solid - Incorrect because indium is in a liquid state at 323�F. C: Gas - Incorrect, as indium would be in a liquid state at 323�F. D: Not enough information - Incorrect since the temperature provided allows us to determine the physical state of indium.
Question 3 of 5
Order the four metric prefixes from smallest to largest.
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: The correct order is A: nano- < milli- < centi- < kilo-. The rationale is as follows: 1. Start from the smallest prefix, which is nano- representing 10^-9. 2. Moving up, milli- comes next representing 10^-3, which is larger than nano-. 3. Following milli- is centi- representing 10^-2, larger than milli-. 4. Lastly, kilo- is the largest prefix representing 10^3, making it the largest of the four options. Therefore, the correct order is nano- < milli- < centi- < kilo-. The other choices are incorrect because they do not follow the correct increasing order of magnitude for the metric prefixes.
Question 4 of 5
Convert 4 mi to km. (1 m = 094 yd, 1 mi = 1760 yd)
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert 4 mi to km, first convert miles to yards: 4 mi * 1760 yd/mi = 7040 yd. Then convert yards to meters: 7040 yd * 0.9144 m/yd = 6437.216 m. Finally, convert meters to kilometers: 6437.216 m/1000 m/km = 6.437216 km. Rounding to three significant figures, the answer is 3.69 x 10^1 km (B). Other choices are incorrect because they do not correctly convert miles to kilometers or have calculation errors.
Question 5 of 5
Convert 4338 mL to qt. (1 L = 06 qt)
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert 4338 mL to qt, first convert mL to L by dividing by 1000 (4338 mL / 1000 = 4.338 L). Then, convert L to qt using the conversion factor 1 L = 0.946 qt. So, 4.338 L * 0.946 qt/L = 4.092 qt (Answer B). Choice A (4598 qt) is incorrect as it does not follow the correct conversion process. Choice C (4.092 10 3 qt) is incorrect due to incorrect formatting and notation. Choice D (4092 qt) is incorrect as it uses the wrong conversion factor.
