1. Which part of the brain controls balance and coordination?

• A. Cerebellum
• B. Hypothalamus
• C. Occipital lobe
• D. Corpus callosum

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Rationale: The cerebellum is the part of the brain responsible for coordinating voluntary movements, balance, and posture. It receives information from the sensory systems, the spinal cord, and other parts of the brain to regulate motor movements. The hypothalamus is involved in regulating various bodily functions such as temperature, hunger, and thirst. The occipital lobe is primarily responsible for processing visual information. The corpus callosum is a structure that connects the two hemispheres of the brain and facilitates communication between them.

2. What is the net ionic equation for the reaction: 2HCl(aq) + Ba(OH)2(aq) → 2H2O(l) + BaCl2(aq)?

• A. 2H+(aq) + 2OH-(aq) → 2H2O(l)
• B. 2HCl(aq) + Ba(OH)2(aq) → BaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)
• C. 2H+(aq) + Ba2+(aq) → Ba2+(aq) + 2H+(aq)
• D. Ba(OH)2(aq) + HCl(aq) → BaCl2(aq) + 2H2O(l)

Correct answer: a

Rationale: The net ionic equation includes only the species that undergo a change during the reaction.

3. What is the unit of force in the SI system?

• A. Newton (N)
