  • 2. 

    The Flow of Electron is

    • Voltage

    • Current

    • Wattage

    • Resistance

    • Electricity

    Correct Answer
    A. Current
    Explanation
    The flow of electrons is referred to as current. Current is the rate at which electric charge flows through a conductor. It is measured in amperes (A) and is the result of the movement of electrons in a circuit. Voltage, wattage, and resistance are related to current but do not directly represent the flow of electrons. Electricity is a general term that encompasses various aspects of electrical phenomena, including current.

    Rate this question:

  • 3. 

    What is Electrical Pressure

    • Resistance

    • Wattage

    • Voltage

    Correct Answer
    A. Voltage
    Explanation
    Voltage is the correct answer because it refers to the electrical pressure or force that pushes electric current through a circuit. It is the measure of potential difference between two points in a circuit, determining the flow of electrons. Voltage is measured in volts and is essential for the operation of electrical devices and systems.

  • 4. 

    Wattage is the measure of the amount of resistance that is being used in a circuit

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. False
    Explanation
    It is the amount of power that is being used in a circuit

    Rate this question:

  • 5. 

    Insulators can conduct current but only if enough pressure is applied

    • True

    • False

    Correct Answer
    A. True
    Explanation
    Insulators are materials that do not readily allow the flow of electric current. However, under certain conditions, insulators can conduct current if enough pressure is applied. This is known as the piezoelectric effect, where the mechanical stress applied to an insulating material causes the rearrangement of its internal charges, enabling the flow of current. Therefore, the statement "Insulators can conduct current but only if enough pressure is applied" is true.

    Rate this question:

  • 6. 

    How many coulombs per second equate to one Ampere?

    • 3

    • 5

    • 1

    • 2

    • 7

    Correct Answer
    A. 1
    Explanation
    One Ampere is equivalent to one coulomb per second. This means that in one second, one Ampere of electric current will pass through a point, carrying one coulomb of charge. Therefore, the correct answer is 1.

    Rate this question:

  • 7. 

    This is made up from a combination of Atoms

    • Matter

    • Element

    • Nucleus

    Correct Answer
    A. Matter
    Explanation
    Matter is made up of atoms, which are the basic building blocks of all elements and substances. Atoms combine together to form molecules and compounds, which in turn make up different forms of matter. Therefore, the statement "This is made up from a combination of Atoms" implies that matter is composed of atoms coming together to form various substances and elements.

    Rate this question:

  • 8. 

    One of the Basic building blocks of nature, and the atom is the smallest part of it

    • Nucleus

    • Chemical

    • Metal

    • Element

    Correct Answer
    A. Element
    Explanation
    An element is a basic building block of nature and the atom is the smallest part of it. Elements are pure substances that cannot be broken down into simpler substances by chemical means. Each element is made up of atoms that have the same number of protons in their nucleus. Therefore, the given answer of "Element" is correct as it aligns with the description provided.

    Rate this question:

  • 9. 

    The Atomic number of an element is equal to the number of what in the nucleus of its atom

    • Neutrons

    • Protons

    • Electrons

    Correct Answer
    A. Protons
    Explanation
    The atomic number of an element is equal to the number of protons in the nucleus of its atom. Protons are positively charged particles found in the nucleus of an atom. Each element has a unique number of protons, which determines its atomic number. Therefore, the correct answer is protons.

    Rate this question:

  • 10. 

    Insulators can contain how many valence electrons

    • 3-5

    • 6-8

    • 2-6

    • 3-9

    Correct Answer
    A. 6-8
    Explanation
    Insulators are materials that do not conduct electricity well because they have a completely filled valence shell. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost energy level of an atom. The range of 6-8 valence electrons is correct because elements in this range, such as oxygen, sulfur, and chlorine, tend to have a full or almost full valence shell, making them poor conductors of electricity.

    Rate this question:

  • 11. 

    How many Valence Electrons could a conductor have

    • 1-7

    • 2-5

    • 1-3

    • 4-7

    Correct Answer
    A. 1-3
    Explanation
    Conductors are materials that have a high number of free electrons that can move easily within the material. Valence electrons are the electrons in the outermost shell of an atom that are involved in bonding. Since conductors have a high number of free electrons, it means that they have a low number of valence electrons. The range of 1-3 valence electrons is the most appropriate answer because it represents materials like metals, which are good conductors due to their low valence electron count.

    What are the most conductive metals... In order

    • Copper, Silver, Gold, Aluminum

    • Silver, Gold, Copper, Aluminum

    • Aluminum, Copper, Silver, Gold

    • Silver, Copper, Gold, Aluminum

    Correct Answer
    A. Silver, Copper, Gold, Aluminum
    Explanation
    The most conductive metals in order are silver, copper, gold, and aluminum. This is because silver has the highest electrical conductivity among all metals, followed by copper. Gold comes next, although it is less conductive than silver and copper. Aluminum has the lowest conductivity among these metals.
