    What are two or more substances that are mixed together but not chemically combined?                                                                                        - ProProfs

    What are two or more substances that are mixed together but not chemically combined?                                                                                       

    • Molecule

    • Element

    • Mixture

    • Compound

    Correct Answer
    A. Mixture
    Explanation
    Two or more substances that are mixed together but not chemically combined are called a mixture. In a mixture, the substances retain their individual properties and can be separated by physical means. This is different from a compound, where two or more elements are chemically combined to form a new substance with different properties.

  • 6. 
    What is the amount of space that matter, the liquid, takes up in a graduated cylinder?                                             - ProProfs

    What is the amount of space that matter, the liquid, takes up in a graduated cylinder?                                            

    • Mass

    • Volume

    • Density

    • Distance

    Correct Answer
    A. Volume
    Explanation
    The amount of space that matter, the liquid, takes up in a graduated cylinder is referred to as its volume. Volume is a measure of the three-dimensional space occupied by an object or substance. In the context of a graduated cylinder, volume is typically measured in milliliters (mL) or cubic centimeters (cm³).

  • 7. 
    Which weighs more, a kilogram of chicken or a kilogram of feathers?                              - ProProfs

    Which weighs more, a kilogram of chicken or a kilogram of feathers?                             

    • Chicken weighs more the feathers

    • Feathers weigh less than the chicken

    • Chicken and feathers weigh the same

    • Feathers weigh more than the chicken

    Correct Answer
    A. Chicken and feathers weigh the same
    Explanation
    The correct answer is that chicken and feathers weigh the same. This is because both a kilogram of chicken and a kilogram of feathers have the same weight, which is one kilogram. The question is a play on words, as it tricks the reader into thinking that the feathers would weigh less due to their lighter and fluffier nature compared to the solid mass of the chicken. However, weight is determined by the mass of an object, and in this case, both the chicken and the feathers have the same mass of one kilogram.

    What is the absorbing of energy in the form of heat, such as an ice pack absorbing energy, resulting the drop in temperature?                                                                        - ProProfs

    What is the absorbing of energy in the form of heat, such as an ice pack absorbing energy, resulting the drop in temperature?                                                                       

    • Chemical reaction

    • Exothermic reaction

    • Endothermic reaction

    • Nuclear reaction

    Correct Answer
    A. Endothermic reaction
    Explanation
    An endothermic reaction is a chemical reaction that absorbs energy in the form of heat from its surroundings. When an ice pack absorbs energy, it takes in heat from its surroundings, resulting in a drop in temperature. This is an example of an endothermic reaction because the ice pack is absorbing energy (heat) from its surroundings.

    Who invented the idea of gravity when an apple fell off a tree?               - ProProfs

    Who invented the idea of gravity when an apple fell off a tree?              

    • Galileo

    • Newton

    • Charles

    • Boyle

    Correct Answer
    A. Newton
    Explanation
    Newton is the correct answer because he is credited with formulating the concept of gravity when an apple fell off a tree. This event is said to have inspired Newton to develop his theory of universal gravitation, which states that every object in the universe attracts every other object with a force that is directly proportional to their masses and inversely proportional to the square of the distance between them. Newton's work on gravity revolutionized our understanding of the physical world and laid the foundation for modern physics.

    What remains the same in an object on the moon?                                                                    

    • Weight

    • Material

    • Mass

    • Energy

    Correct Answer
    A. Mass
    Explanation
    Weight must have gravity to stay the same, but mass is the amount of matter in the object, which does not depend upon gravity.

    What is the temperature when it is freezing outside in the metric system?                                              - ProProfs

    What is the temperature when it is freezing outside in the metric system?                                             

    • 32 degrees Fahenheit

    • 212 degrees Fahenheit

    • 100 degrees Celsius

    • 0 degrees Celsius

    Correct Answer
    A. 0 degrees Celsius
    Explanation
    Freezing point is the temperature at which a substance changes from a liquid to a solid state. In the metric system, the freezing point of water is 0 degrees Celsius. Therefore, when it is freezing outside, the temperature would be 0 degrees Celsius.

    What is amount of the measurement on the meter stick, which is located at the letter F? (Remember each black mark is 1/10 or or 0.1 after you read the whole number).                                         - ProProfs

    What is amount of the measurement on the meter stick, which is located at the letter F? (Remember each black mark is 1/10 or or 0.1 after you read the whole number).                                        

    • 5.0 in.

    • 4.9 in.

    • 4.9 cm

    • 4.9 mL

    Correct Answer
    A. 4.9 cm
    Explanation
    The correct answer is 4.9 cm because the question asks for the measurement on the meter stick at the letter F. The other options (5.0 in., 4.9 in., 4.9 mL) are not relevant to the meter stick measurement. The given answer matches the unit of measurement specified in the question (cm) and is the closest measurement to the letter F on the meter stick.
