1. Julius stresses the importance of promoting ‘esprit d corps’ among the members of the unit.

• A. “Let’s work together in harmony; we need to be supportive of one another”
• B. “In order that we achieve the same results; we must all follow the directives of Julius and not
• C. “We will ensure that all the resources we need are available when needed.”
• D. “We need to put our efforts together in order to raise the bar of excellence in the care we

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct answer is D because it emphasizes the idea of collective effort and striving for excellence, which aligns with promoting 'esprit de corps' - a sense of unity and camaraderie among group members. By working together and combining their efforts, the unit can enhance the quality of care they provide. This fosters a positive team spirit and encourages collaboration. The other options do not directly address the concept of 'esprit de corps' or the importance of unity and teamwork within the group.

2. Identify the spectator ions in the reaction: 2KCl + Pb(NO3)2 → 2KNO3 + PbCl2.

• A. K+ and NO3-
• B. K+ and Cl-
• C. Pb2+ and NO3-
• D. Pb2+ and Cl-

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: - In the reaction, potassium ions (K+) and chloride ions (Cl-) are present on both sides of the equation. They are not involved in the formation of the products and remain unchanged. - Lead ions (Pb2+) and nitrate ions (NO3-) are involved in the formation of the products potassium nitrate (KNO3) and lead(II) chloride (PbCl2). - Therefore, the spectator ions in this reaction are K+ and Cl-.

3. A patient's oxygen flow rate is set at 4 liters per minute. How many cubic centimeters of oxygen are delivered per minute?

• A. 400 cubic centimeters
• B. 4,000 cubic centimeters
• C. 40,000 cubic centimeters
• D. 400,000 cubic centimeters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Remember 1 liter is equal to 1000 cubic centimeters. Multiply the flow rate in liters per minute by the conversion factor: 4 liters/minute * 1000 cm³/liter = 4,000 cubic centimeters/minute.

4. In a single displacement reaction, one element takes the place of another element in a compound. Which of the following is an example?

• A. 2H2 + O2 -> 2H2O
• B. Zn + 2HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2
• C. CaCO3 -> CaO + CO2
• D. CH4 + 2O2 -> CO2 + 2H2O

Correct answer: B

Rationale: In a single displacement reaction, one element replaces another element in a compound. Option B, 'Zn + 2HCl -> ZnCl2 + H2,' is an example of a single displacement reaction where zinc (Zn) replaces hydrogen (H) in hydrochloric acid (HCl) to form zinc chloride (ZnCl2) and hydrogen gas (H2). The other options do not involve one element displacing another in a compound. Option A is a synthesis reaction, option C is a decomposition reaction, and option D is a combustion reaction. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it demonstrates the concept of single displacement reactions.

5. What is the main idea of the following passage: "The internet has revolutionized communication, allowing people to connect instantly from anywhere in the world. Social media platforms, like Facebook and Twitter, have further amplified this connectivity, enabling individuals to share information and ideas on a global scale."

• A. The internet is a source of entertainment.
• B. Social media is the only way to communicate online.
• C. The internet has transformed communication globally.
• D. Technology is becoming increasingly complex.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: The passage emphasizes the transformative impact of the internet and social media on communication.

6. What is the building block of RNA?

• A. Amino acid
• B. Nucleotide
• C. Protein
• D. Fatty acid

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: A) Amino acid: Amino acids are the building blocks of proteins, not RNA. B) Nucleotide: Nucleotides are the building blocks of RNA. A nucleotide consists of a nitrogenous base (adenine, guanine, cytosine, or uracil in RNA), a sugar (ribose in RNA), and a phosphate group. C) Protein: Proteins are made up of amino acids, not nucleotides. D) Fatty acid: Fatty acids are components of lipids, not RNA.
