1. Convert 0.20 liters to milliliters. What is the equivalent volume?

• A. 200 ml
• B. 20 ml
• C. 2 ml
• D. 2000 ml

Correct answer: A

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1000 since there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. So, 0.20 liters x 1000 = 200 milliliters. This makes choice A, '200 ml,' the correct answer. Choices B, C, and D are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion factor from liters to milliliters.

2. How many meters are in one kilometer?

• A. 100 meters
• B. 1000 meters
• C. 500 meters
• D. 2000 meters

Correct answer: B

Rationale: The correct answer is B: 1000 meters. One kilometer is equivalent to 1000 meters. Therefore, 1000 meters is the accurate conversion from kilometers to meters. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect. Choice A (100 meters) is incorrect as it represents 1/10th of a kilometer. Choice C (500 meters) is incorrect as it is half the value of a kilometer. Choice D (2000 meters) is incorrect as it exceeds the value of a kilometer.

3. The prefix giga is represented by the following notation ________.

• A. G
• B. m
• C. Gg
• D. g

Correct answer: A

Rationale: The correct answer is A: 'G'. The prefix 'giga' is commonly represented by the letter 'G' and corresponds to a factor of 10^9, which is equivalent to one billion. Choice B, 'm', represents the prefix 'milli', which corresponds to a factor of 10^-3, not 'giga'. Choice C, 'Gg', is incorrect as the prefix 'giga' is represented by a single letter 'G', not 'Gg'. Choice D, 'g', is incorrect as it represents the prefix 'gram' in the International System of Units (SI) and not the prefix 'giga'.

4. Convert 0.2 liters to milliliters. What is the equivalent volume?

• A. 20 ml
• B. 200 ml
• C. 2 ml
• D. 2000 ml

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert 0.2 liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in a liter. So, 0.2 * 1,000 = 200 milliliters. Therefore, the correct answer is 200 ml. Choice A (20 ml) is incorrect because it represents 0.02 liters, not 0.2 liters. Choice C (2 ml) is incorrect as it represents 0.002 liters. Choice D (2000 ml) is incorrect as it represents 2 liters, not 0.2 liters.

5. What is 0.5 liters converted to milliliters?

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

Correct answer: B

Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply the number of liters by 1000 because there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 0.5 liters converts to 500 milliliters. Choice A (50 ml) is incorrect as it is the result of multiplying by 10 instead of 1000. Choice C (5 ml) is incorrect as it is the result of dividing by 10 instead of multiplying by 1000. Choice D (0.5 ml) is incorrect as it represents the original quantity in milliliters, not the conversion from liters.
