|
fiber |
|
saturated fat |

212°F is how many °C?
100 |
|
-100 |
|
\(135 {5 \over 9}\) |
|
0 |
The formula to convert from F° to C° is:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (F° - 32)\)
plugging in our values gives:
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (212 - 32)\)
\(C° = {5 \over 9} (180) = {{180 \times 5} \over 9}\)
\(C° = {900 \over 9}\)
\(C° = 100\)
Elements in the Periodic Table of the Elements are ordered by which of the following?
atomic mass |
|
atomic weight |
|
atomic number |
|
number of electron shells |
The Periodic Table of the Elements categorizes elements primarily by the number of protons in their nucleus (atomic number) and secondarily by the characteristics they exhibit.
Which of the following is not part of the carbon cycle?
precipitation |
|
decomposition |
|
respiration |
|
photosynthesis |
The carbon cycle represents the ciruit of carbon through Earth's ecosystem. Carbon dioxide (CO2) in the atmosphere is absorbed by plants through photosynthesis. Plants then die and release carbon back into the atmosphere during decomposition or are eaten by animals who breathe (respiration) the carbon into the atmosphere they exhale and produce waste which also releases carbon as it decays.
A subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. This desribes which of the following?
proton |
|
neutron |
|
electron |
|
isotope |
An electron is a subatomic particle that orbits the nucleus of an atom. It carries a negative electric charge. Generally, an atom has the same number of negative electrons orbiting the nucleus as it does positive protons inside.
