1. What is the pH of a solution with a hydrogen ion concentration of \(1 \times 10^{-9}\) M?

• A. 5
• B. 7
• C. 9
• D. 11

Correct answer: c

Rationale: The pH is calculated as the negative logarithm (base 10) of the hydrogen ion concentration. In this case, \(-\log(1 \times 10^{-9}) = 9\).

2. The phrase "robust ethical frameworks" refers to

• A. Complex algorithms and mathematical models used in AI development.
• B. Comprehensive sets of guidelines and regulations governing AI development and deployment.
• C. Advanced hardware and software systems necessary for building powerful AI systems.
• D. Public education campaigns raising awareness about the potential benefits and risks of AI.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Ethical frameworks are sets of principles and guidelines that ensure responsible AI development and address potential risks, aligning with B.

• C. Density
• D. Volume

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Density measures the amount of matter (mass) per unit volume of a substance.

5. Which of the following is a balanced chemical equation?

• A. H2 + O2 → H2O
• B. 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O
• C. 3H2O → 2H2 + O2
• D. H2O → H2 + O2

Correct answer: b

Rationale: The equation is balanced, with equal numbers of atoms of each element on both sides.

6. The protective fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord is called:

• A. Blood
• B. Cerebrospinal fluid
• C. Plasma
• D. Myelin

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Cerebrospinal fluid. Cerebrospinal fluid is a clear, colorless liquid that surrounds the brain and spinal cord, providing cushioning and protection against physical impact. It also helps to maintain a stable environment for the central nervous system by regulating pressure and removing waste products. Blood (option A) is not the fluid that directly surrounds the brain and spinal cord. Plasma (option C) is the liquid component of blood and is not specific to the central nervous system. Myelin (option D) is a fatty substance that forms a protective sheath around nerve fibers but is not the fluid surrounding the brain and spinal cord.
