Chemistry

1. Which of the following is a common property of both acids and bases?

A. React with metals to produce hydrogen gas
B. Taste sour
C. Turn blue litmus paper red
D. Conduct electricity when dissolved in water

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Both acids and bases conduct electricity when dissolved in water. The other choices are specific to either acids or bases.

2. Which of the following is the main function of the kidneys?

A. To filter waste products from the blood
B. To produce urine
C. To regulate blood pressure
D. To produce hormones that help to control blood sugar levels

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: A) To filter waste products from the blood: The main function of the kidneys is to filter waste products, excess ions, and water from the bloodstream to form urine, which is then excreted from the body. This process helps maintain the body's internal environment by regulating the balance of electrolytes, fluid volume, and pH levels. B) To produce urine: While the kidneys do produce urine as a result of filtering the blood, the primary function is to filter waste products rather than solely producing urine. C) To regulate blood pressure: The kidneys do play a role in regulating blood pressure by controlling the volume of blood and the concentration of electrolytes in the body, but their main function is waste filtration. D) To produce hormones that help to control blood sugar levels: While the kidneys do produce hormones like erythropoietin and renin that play a role in various physiological processes, such as red

3. In a horizontal chart, the lowest level worker is located at the

A. Leftmost box
B. Middle
C. Rightmost box
D. Bottom

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In a horizontal chart, the lowest level worker is typically positioned at the leftmost side, with higher-level workers placed to the right. This arrangement signifies hierarchy, with the top level usually being on the rightmost side. Therefore, the correct answer is B: 'Middle,' as the lowest level worker is situated towards the left of the chart, not the extreme left or right. This positioning helps visually represent the organization's structure and indicates the progression from lower to higher levels as one moves from left to right on the chart.

4. A solution is formed when:

A. One substance dissolves in another
B. Two or more substances react chemically
C. A solid changes to a liquid
D. None of the above

Correct answer: A

Rationale: One substance dissolves in another. A solution is a homogeneous mixture where one substance (solute) dissolves in another (solvent).
