    • 4-5

    • 3

    • 6

    Correct Answer
    A. 3
    Explanation
    Lemon juice has a pH of 3, making it acidic. The pH scale ranges from 0 to 14, with 0 being the most acidic and 14 being the most alkaline. A pH of 3 indicates that lemon juice is highly acidic, which is why it has a sour taste. The acidity of lemon juice is due to the presence of citric acid, which gives it its characteristic flavor and pH level.

    A. Less energy
    Explanation
    The bigger the splatter, the less energy was used to make it. This implies that a smaller amount of energy was required to create a larger splatter. This could be because a larger splatter indicates that the substance was more easily dispersed, requiring less force or energy to achieve a wider spread.
