1. In the reaction 2H2 + O2 → 2H2O, how many moles of oxygen are required to react completely with 4 moles of hydrogen?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Correct answer: 2

Rationale: The balanced equation indicates a 1:1 ratio between H2 and O2, so 4 moles of H2 require 4 moles of O2, and 2 moles of H2 require 2 moles of O2.

2. What is the term for a solution with a pH value less than 7?

• A. Acidic
• B. Neutral
• C. Alkaline
• D. Basic

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Solutions with a pH less than 7 are acidic. The other choices do not accurately describe solutions with a pH less than 7.

3. Which of the following is the main organ responsible for producing bile?

• A. Liver
• B. Gallbladder
• C. Pancreas
• D. Stomach

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: The liver is the main organ responsible for producing bile. Bile is a greenish-yellow fluid that is produced by the liver and stored in the gallbladder. It plays a crucial role in the digestion and absorption of fats in the small intestine. The gallbladder releases bile into the small intestine when needed to aid in the digestion of fats. The pancreas is responsible for producing digestive enzymes and insulin, not bile. The stomach is primarily involved in the digestion of food through the secretion of gastric juices.

4. What happens when a protein unfolds?

• A. Activation
• B. Denaturation
• C. Renaturation
• D. Folding

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - Activation (Option A) refers to the process of initiating or increasing the activity of a molecule, such as an enzyme. Protein unfolding does not involve activation. - Denaturation (Option B) is the correct answer. Denaturation refers to the process by which a protein loses its three-dimensional structure, leading to the disruption of its function. This can be caused by factors such as heat, pH changes, or chemicals. - Renaturation (Option C) is the process by which a denatured protein regains its native structure and function. Protein unfolding is the opposite of renaturation. - Folding (Option D) is the process by which a protein assumes its functional three-dimensional structure. Unfolding is the reverse process of folding, not folding itself.

5. An IV drip delivers 40 drops per minute, each containing 1mg of medication. How many milligrams are administered in 3 hours (180 minutes)?

• A. 360mg
• B. 720mg
• C. 7,200mg
• D. 14,400mg

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: In this scenario, we first calculated the total number of drops administered in 3 hours by multiplying the drops per minute by the total number of minutes. Then, we converted the drops to milligrams by multiplying the total drops by the amount of medication in each drop. This method ensures an accurate calculation of the total amount of medication administered over the given time period.

6. Which sentence uses the modal verb "should" correctly?

• A. You should have studied harder for the exam.
• B. I should be going now.
• C. She said she should have taken a different route.
• D. They should be arriving any minute now.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Option B conveys an intention or expectation regarding the present or near future.
