1. What is the relationship between the frequency and period of a wave?

• A. They are unrelated
• B. Frequency = Period
• C. Frequency = 1/Period
• D. Period = 1/Frequency

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The correct relationship between frequency and period of a wave is that Period = 1/Frequency. This means that the period of a wave is the reciprocal of its frequency. Frequency is the number of complete cycles of a wave that occur in a unit of time, while the period is the time it takes for one complete cycle of the wave to occur. Since frequency and period are inversely related, the correct formula is Period = 1/Frequency.

2. What is the coefficient of oxygen in the balanced chemical equation for the combustion of methane (CH4)?

• A. 1
• B. 2
• C. 3
• D. 4

Correct answer: b

Rationale: The balanced equation is CH4 + 2O2 → CO2 + 2H2O, so the coefficient of oxygen is 2.

3. Which energy conversion occurs in a solar cell?

• A. Electrical energy to light energy
• B. Chemical energy to electrical energy
• C. Solar energy to thermal energy
• D. Solar energy to electrical energy

Correct answer: d

Rationale: Solar cells convert solar energy (sunlight) directly into electrical energy.

4. Which of the following is NOT a factor affecting the rate of a chemical reaction?

• A. Concentration of reactants
• B. Temperature
• C. Presence of a catalyst
• D. Color of the reaction mixture

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Color of the reaction mixture. While color change can sometimes be an indicator of a reaction, it doesn't directly influence the reaction rate.

5. The intricate network of blood vessels responsible for transporting blood throughout the body is the:

• A. Lymphatic system
• B. Circulatory system
• C. Nervous system
• D. Respiratory system

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: Circulatory system. The circulatory system is responsible for transporting blood, oxygen, nutrients, and other substances throughout the body. It consists of the heart, blood vessels (arteries, veins, and capillaries), and blood. The lymphatic system (A) is a separate system that helps to maintain fluid balance in the body and plays a role in the immune response. The nervous system (C) is responsible for transmitting signals between different parts of the body and the brain. The respiratory system (D) is responsible for the exchange of oxygen and carbon dioxide in the body through breathing. In this question, the circulatory system is specifically mentioned as the network of blood vessels responsible for transporting blood, making it the correct answer.

6. The number of protons in an atom is determined by its:

• A. Atomic mass
• B. Electron configuration
• C. Chemical properties
• D. Atomic number

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Atomic number is a fundamental property of an element and is independent of its mass, electron configuration, or chemical behavior.
