1

Which of the following is the formula for power?

56% Answer Correctly

\(P = w t\)

\(P = {\vec{w} \over t}\)

\(P = \vec{w}t\)

\(P = {w \over t}\)


Solution

Power is the rate at which work is performed or work per unit time:  \(P = {w \over t}\)  and is measured in watts (W).


2

Molecules and atoms that are inputs to a chemical reaction are known as which of the following?

63% Answer Correctly

reactants

components

fuel

63% Answer Correctly

capillaries

diaphragms

bronchioles

blood cells


Solution

4

Which of these is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods?

49% Answer Correctly

compound

element

atom

molecule


Solution

An element is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods.


5

A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by what kind of bond?

48% Answer Correctly

molecular

ionic

chemical

covalent


Solution

A compound is a substance containing two or more different chemical elements bound together by a chemical bond. In covalent compounds, electrons are shared between atoms. In ionic compounds, one atom borrows an electron from another atom resulting in two ions (electrically charged atoms) of opposite polarities that then become bonded electrostatically.
