1. What is the formula to calculate work?

• A. Work = Force × Distance
• B. Work = Mass × Velocity
• C. Work = Power × Time
• D. Work = Energy ÷ Time

Correct answer: a

Rationale: Work is calculated by multiplying force exerted on an object by the distance the object moves in the direction of the force.

2. Which of the following is an example of an unsaturated fatty acid?

• A. Stearic acid
• B. Palmitic acid
• C. Oleic acid
• D. Butyric acid

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Oleic acid is an unsaturated fatty acid, containing at least one double bond in its hydrocarbon chain. The other choices are saturated fatty acids.

3. The main purpose of using strong vocabulary in your writing is to:

• A. Impress the reader with your knowledge of complex words.
• B. Confuse the reader and make them think harder.
• C. Communicate your ideas clearly and precisely.
• D. Shorten your sentences and save space.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: While using complex vocabulary can showcase knowledge, the primary goal is to ensure the reader understands your message. Precise words eliminate confusion and ambiguity.

4. A lampshade consists of a cylindrical base (diameter 20cm, height 10cm) and a hemispherical top (same diameter as the base). What is its total surface area?

• A. 785 sq cm
• B. 1130 sq cm
• C. 1570 sq cm
• D. 2055 sq cm

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Calculate the surface area of the cylinder (base + lateral surface) and the hemisphere (half of a sphere's surface area). Add both areas to find the total surface area.

5. Electrons occupy specific energy levels around the nucleus, but not in fixed orbits. This concept is captured by the:

• A. Bohr model
• B. Quantum mechanical model
• C. Lewis structure
• D. Octet rule

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Quantum mechanical model. Unlike the Bohr model with its defined electron paths, the quantum mechanical model uses probability distributions to describe electron locations within energy levels.

6. The energy released during a chemical reaction is called:

• A. Kinetic energy
• B. Potential energy
• C. Heat energy
• D. Exothermic energy

Correct answer: D

Rationale: Exothermic means "outward heat," indicating energy is released during the reaction.
