Elements in the Periodic Table of the Elements are ordered by which of the following?
number of electron shells |
|
atomic weight |
|
atomic mass |
|
atomic number |
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.
The pitch of the siren of an approaching ambulance changes as it approaches you. This is an example of which of the following?
Doppler effect |
|
refraction |
|
sound radiation |
|
reflection |
The Doppler effect occurs when the source or listener (or both) of sound waves is moving. If they're moving closer together, the listener perceives the sound with a higher pitch and, when they're moving apart, the listener perceives the sound with a lower pitch.

To convert from C° to F° use:
\(F° = {9 \over 5}C° + 32\)
\(F° = {9 \over 5}(5) + 32\)
\(F° = {45 \over 5} + 32\)
\(F° = 9 + 32 = 41\)
Which of these is not a recognized blood type?
AB |
|
B |
|
O |
|
AO |
Blood is categorized into four different types (A, B, AB, and O) based on the type of antigens found on the outside of the red blood cells. Additionally, each type can be negative or positive based on whether or not the cells have an antigen called the Rh factor.
An element in the physical state of __________ maintains a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
gas |
|
plasma |
|
solid |
|
liquid |
In the liquid state, molecules flow freely around each other and exist at a higher temperature range than the same substance in a solid state. Liquids maintain a constant volume but their shape depends upon the shape of their container.
