1. How is power related to time?

• A. Power is inversely proportional to time
• B. Power is directly proportional to time
• C. Power is unrelated to time
• D. Power is the product of time and work

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Power is the rate at which work is done or energy is transferred, and it is not directly linked to time.

2. Which property of matter explains why ice floats on water?

• A. Viscosity
• B. Density
• C. Buoyancy
• D. Surface tension

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Buoyancy is the upward force exerted by a fluid (like water) on an object immersed in it. Ice floats on water because it is less dense than water, experiencing an upward force (buoyancy) greater than its weight.

3. Which of the following is a characteristic of a solution with a high viscosity?

• A. It flows easily
• B. It has a low resistance to flow
• C. It has a high resistance to flow
• D. It does not mix with other liquids

Correct answer: c

Rationale: Solutions with high viscosity have a high resistance to flow. The other choices do not accurately describe high viscosity.

4. Which preposition best completes the sentence: "She borrowed money _____ her friend."

• A. of
• B. from
• C. on
• D. for

Correct answer: B

Rationale: "From" indicates the source of the borrowed money.

5. Which functional group is commonly found in ketones?

• A. Hydroxyl
• B. Carbonyl
• C. Ester
• D. Amine

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Ketones have the functional group -CO-, which is a carbonyl group. The other choices are associated with different functional groups

6. A set of temperature readings has a range of 5 degrees Celsius. What does this tell you about the data?

• A. The average temperature is 5 degrees Celsius.
• B. All temperatures are within 5 degrees of each other.
• C. The difference between the highest and lowest temperatures is 5 degrees.
• D. There are exactly 5 temperatures in the set.

Correct answer: C

Rationale: Rationale: - Option A is incorrect because the range of 5 degrees does not necessarily mean that the average temperature is 5 degrees Celsius. The average temperature could be any value within the range. - Option B is incorrect because the range of 5 degrees does not mean that all temperatures are within 5 degrees of each other. It only indicates the difference between the highest and lowest temperatures. - Option C is correct because the range of 5 degrees specifically refers to the difference between the highest and lowest temperatures in the set. This is a common definition of range in statistics. - Option D is incorrect because the range of 5 degrees does not determine the number of temperatures in the set. The set could have more or fewer than 5 temperatures.
