1. The beautiful flowers brightened the room. Which word is the adverb form of the adjective "beautiful"?

• A. beautiful
• B. beautifully
• C. beautification
• D. beautify

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Adverbs are formed from adjectives by adding "-ly" (usually).

2. Which nitrogenous bases pair with each other in DNA?

• A. A-G and T-C
• B. A-T and C-G
• C. -A and T-T
• D. C-C and G-G

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Rationale: In DNA, nitrogenous bases pair with each other in a specific manner known as complementary base pairing. Adenine (A) always pairs with Thymine (T), and Cytosine (C) always pairs with Guanine (G). This pairing is essential for maintaining the structure and function of DNA. Therefore, option B is the correct answer as it correctly identifies the nitrogenous bases that pair with each other in DNA.

3. What type of reaction is represented by the following equation: Fe2O3 (s) + 3H2 (g) -> 2Fe (s) + 3H2O (g)

• A. Combustion
• B. Decomposition
• C. Single displacement
• D. Redox reaction

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The given equation involves a transfer of electrons from iron oxide (Fe2O3) to hydrogen gas (H2), resulting in the formation of iron (Fe) and water (H2O). This transfer of electrons indicates a redox reaction, where oxidation and reduction occur simultaneously. In this case, iron is reduced from a higher oxidation state in Fe2O3 to a lower oxidation state in Fe, while hydrogen is oxidized from its elemental state in H2 to form water. Therefore, the correct answer is D: Redox reaction.

4. Identify the antonym of the word "pensive":

• A. joyous
• B. thoughtful
• C. curious
• D. introspective

Correct answer: A

Rationale: "Joyous" is the opposite of "pensive," which means thoughtful and slightly melancholy.

5. The ability of a substance to dissolve in another is called:

• A. Solubility
• B. Miscibility
• C. Immiscibility
• D. Reactivity

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Solubility refers to the extent to which one substance can dissolve in another to form a homogeneous solution.

6. What is the difference between heat and temperature?

• A. They are the same thing.
• B. Heat is a form of energy, while temperature measures the average kinetic energy of particles.
• C. Heat flows from cold to hot, while temperature flows from hot to cold.
• D. Heat is measured in Celsius, while temperature is measured in Joules.

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Heat is a form of energy transfer, while temperature reflects the average kinetic energy of particles within a substance.
