Convert 0C° to F°.
-32 |
|

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(0) + 32\)
\(F° = 0 + 32 = 32\)
Which of these is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods?
molecule |
|
compound |
|
element |
|
atom |
An element is matter than cannot be separated into different types of matter by ordinary chemical methods.
Elements in the same group in the Periodic Table of the Elements have the same:
number of atomic mass units |
|
number of electrons |
|
number of electrons in their outer electron shell |
|
number of electron shells |
The columns of the Periodic Table are called groups and all elements in a group have the same number of electrons in their outer electron shell. The group that an element occupies generally determines its chemical properties as the number of outer shell electrons establishes the way it reacts with other elements to form molecules. So, because each element has the same number of electrons in its outer shell, each has similar reactivity.
Sound travels fastest through which of the following media?
water |
|
vacuum |
|
air |
|
metal |
The speed of a sound wave will vary with the medium. Sound travels fastest through media that has particles that are very close together, like metal. Thus, it travels faster through water than through air and doesn't travel at all through a vacuum (there are no particles in empty space to vibrate).
Which of blood component allows blood to clot?
red blood cells |
|
plasma |
|
white blood cells |
|
platelets |
Blood is created in bone marrow and is made up of cells suspended in liquid plasma. Red blood cells carry oxygen, white blood cells fight infection, and platelets are cell fragments that allow blood to clot.
