1. How many milliliters are in 0.5 liters?

• A. 500 ml
• B. 50 ml
• C. 5 ml
• D. 0.5 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert from liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in a liter. Therefore, 0.5 liters x 1000 = 500 milliliters. This conversion is common in various contexts where different units of volume are used. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect as they do not reflect the correct conversion factor from liters to milliliters.

2. What is 0.1 mg to mcg?

• A. 100 mcg
• B. 10 mcg
• C. 1000 mcg
• D. 1 mcg

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert milligrams to micrograms, you need to multiply by 1000. Therefore, 0.1 mg is equal to 100 mcg. This conversion is commonly used in medical calculations. Choice B (10 mcg) is incorrect because it would be the conversion from milligrams to micrograms if multiplied by 100, not 10. Choice C (1000 mcg) is incorrect as it would be the conversion from grams to micrograms if multiplied by 1000. Choice D (1 mcg) is incorrect as it represents the original unit without conversion.

3. How many milliliters are in 1 ounce?

• A. 20 ml
• B. 30 ml
• C. 40 ml
• D. 50 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 30 ml. 1 ounce is equivalent to 30 milliliters. This conversion is a common one in many contexts involving liquid measurements. Choice A (20 ml), Choice C (40 ml), and Choice D (50 ml) are incorrect conversions and do not represent the accurate conversion between ounces and milliliters.

4. How many ounces are in one gallon?

• A. 64 ounces
• B. 128 ounces
• C. 100 ounces
• D. 150 ounces

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 128 ounces. One gallon is equivalent to 128 ounces. This conversion relationship is commonly used in cooking, baking, and various liquid measurements. Choice A (64 ounces) is incorrect as it represents half the amount of a gallon. Choice C (100 ounces) and Choice D (150 ounces) are also incorrect, as they do not accurately reflect the conversion of a gallon to ounces.

5. What is the value of one femtometer (fm) in meters?

• A. 10^-15 meters
• B. 10^-9 meters
• C. 10^-12 meters
• D. 10^-18 meters

Correct answer: A

Rationale: A femtometer is equivalent to 10^-15 meters. The prefix 'femto-' signifies a factor of one quadrillionth (10^-15), making choice A the correct answer. Choice B (10^-9 meters) represents a nanometer, not a femtometer. Choice C (10^-12 meters) corresponds to a picometer, not a femtometer. Choice D (10^-18 meters) is even smaller than a femtometer and refers to an attometer, not a femtometer.
