1. What is 1500 milliliters in liters?

• A. 1.5 liters
• B. 0.15 liters
• C. 15 liters
• D. 0.015 liters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert milliliters to liters, you need to divide by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 1500 milliliters divided by 1000 equals 1.5 liters, making option A the correct answer. Option B, 0.15 liters, is incorrect as it would be the conversion of 150 milliliters. Option C, 15 liters, is incorrect because it would be the conversion of 15,000 milliliters. Option D, 0.015 liters, is incorrect as it would be the conversion of 15 milliliters.

2. Convert 0.2 liters to milliliters. What is the equivalent volume?

• A. 20 ml
• B. 200 ml
• C. 2 ml
• D. 2000 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.2 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. So, 0.2 * 1,000 = 200 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is 200 ml. Choice A (20 ml) is incorrect because it represents 0.02 liters, not 0.2 liters. Choice C (2 ml) is incorrect as it represents 0.002 liters. Choice D (2000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 2 liters, not 0.2 liters.

3. What is 0.1 kg in grams?

• A. 100 g
• B. 10 g
• C. 1 g
• D. 0.1 g

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert kilograms to grams, you need to multiply by 1,000 since there are 1,000 grams in a kilogram. Therefore, 0.1 kg equals 100 grams. Choice B (10 g) is incorrect because it represents converting 0.01 kg to grams. Choice C (1 g) is incorrect as it reflects the conversion of 0.001 kg to grams. Choice D (0.1 g) is the value in grams equivalent to 0.01 kg, not 0.1 kg.

4. What does 'cm' stand for in the metric system?

• A. centimeter
• B. cubic meter
• C. cord
• D. centi

Correct answer: A

Rationale: In the metric system, 'cm' stands for centimeter, which is a unit of length equal to 1/100th of a meter. The correct answer is 'centimeter' (A). Choice B, 'cubic meter,' is a unit of volume, not length. Choice C, 'cord,' is not a standard metric unit. Choice D, 'centi,' is a prefix meaning one-hundredth, but 'cm' specifically stands for centimeter, not just the prefix.

5. Convert 0.1 liter to milliliters.

• A. 10 ml
• B. 100 ml
• C. 1000 ml
• D. 1 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.1 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, 0.1 liter converts to 100 ml. Choice A (10 ml) is incorrect because it is the equivalent of 0.01 liter. Choice C (1000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 1 liter. Choice D (1 ml) is significantly less than the correct conversion.
