1. What is the product of the reaction between hydrochloric acid (HCl) and sodium hydroxide (NaOH)?

• A. NaCl + H2O
• B. NaOH + HCl
• C. Na2Cl + H2O
• D. NaClO3 + H2

Correct answer: a

Rationale: The reaction between HCl and NaOH results in the formation of sodium chloride (NaCl) and water (H2O).

2. A bag contains 5 red marbles and 7 blue marbles. If you draw a marble without looking, what is the probability it will be red?

• A. 1/4
• B. 1/3
• C. 1/2
• D. 2/3

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Divide the number of red marbles (5) by the total number of marbles (12) to get 1/3 probability.

3. Which type of orbital can hold a maximum of 10 electrons?

• A. s orbital
• B. p orbital
• C. d orbital
• D. f orbital

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Each f orbital can hold up to 2 electrons, and there are 5 f orbitals, totaling a maximum of 10 electrons.

4. Which of the following is NOT a type of antibody?

• A. IgA
• B. IgM
• C. Interferon
• D. IgG

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: A) IgA: This is a type of antibody found in mucosal areas such as the gut, respiratory tract, and genitourinary tract. B) IgM: This is a type of antibody produced during the primary immune response and is the first antibody to be produced in response to an infection. C) Interferon: Interferons are signaling proteins produced by cells in response to viral infections. They play a role in the immune response but are not antibodies. D) IgG: This is the most abundant type of antibody in the bloodstream and is involved in long-term immunity. Therefore, the correct answer is C) Interferon, as it is not a type of antibody.

5. What are the three main types of RNA?

• A. Messenger RNA (mRNA), ribosomal RNA (rRNA), and transfer RNA (tRNA)
• B. DNA, RNA, and protein
• C. Adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine
• D. Deoxyribose, ribose, and phosphate

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: - Messenger RNA (mRNA) carries genetic information from the DNA in the nucleus to the ribosomes in the cytoplasm for protein synthesis. - Ribosomal RNA (rRNA) is a structural component of ribosomes, which are the cellular machinery responsible for protein synthesis. - Transfer RNA (tRNA) is responsible for bringing amino acids to the ribosome during protein synthesis. Options B, C, and D are incorrect: - Option B lists DNA, RNA, and protein, which are biomolecules but not the three main types of RNA. - Option C lists nitrogenous bases (adenine, guanine, cytosine, and thymine) found in DNA, not types of RNA. - Option D lists components of nucleotides (deoxyribose, ribose, and phosphate), which are building blocks of nucleic

6. An element with atomic number 26 and mass number 56 is most likely to be:

• A. Iron (Fe)
• B. Cobalt (Co)
• C. Nickel (Ni)
• D. Manganese (Mn)

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Iron (Fe) - Fe-56 has 26 protons and aligns with the given atomic number and mass number.
