1. What is the term for the number of moles of solute per liter of solution?

• A. Molarity
• B. Molality
• C. Normality
• D. Concentration

Correct answer: A

Rationale: Molarity is the correct term for the number of moles of solute per liter of solution. It is expressed as moles of solute divided by liters of solution. Molality (B) is similar but is moles of solute per kilogram of solvent. Normality (C) is the number of equivalents of solute per liter of solution, and Concentration (D) is a general term for the amount of solute present in a given quantity of solution. Therefore, the correct answer is A, molarity, as it specifically refers to moles of solute per liter of solution.

2. Which of the following is the smallest unit of matter?

• A. Molecule
• B. Atom
• C. Compound
• D. Element

Correct answer: B

Rationale: An atom is the fundamental building block of matter, while molecules are formed by the combination of atoms.

3. Identify the positioning of decimal places after the decimal point in this number: 0.08573

• A. 0 in the first decimal place
• B. 8 in the first decimal place
• C. 5 in the second decimal place
• D. 3 in the third decimal place

Correct answer: C

Rationale: In the number 0.08573, the digits are positioned after the decimal point as follows: 0.08573. The correct answer is '5 in the second decimal place' because 5 is the second digit after the decimal point. Choice A is incorrect as there is no '0' after the decimal point. Choice B is incorrect as '8' is the first digit after the decimal point. Choice D is incorrect as '3' is the fourth digit after the decimal point.

4. What is the relationship between work, force, and displacement?

• A. Work is directly proportional to force but inversely proportional to displacement
• B. Work is directly proportional to both force and displacement
• C. Work is inversely proportional to force but directly proportional to displacement
• D. Work is inversely proportional to both force and displacement

Correct answer: B

Rationale: Work is directly proportional to both force and displacement. The work done on an object is calculated by multiplying the force applied to the object by the distance the object moves in the direction of the force. Therefore, work is directly proportional to both force and displacement. Choice A is incorrect because work is not inversely proportional to displacement. Choice C is incorrect because work is not inversely proportional to force. Choice D is incorrect because work is not inversely proportional to both force and displacement.

5. What can one reasonably conclude from the final comment of this passage?

• A. The speaker is considering a name change.
• B. The speaker is experiencing an identity crisis.
• C. The speaker has mistakenly been looking for the wrong person.
• D. The speaker intends to continue to look for Hyde.

Correct answer: D

Rationale: The final comment in the passage indicates that Mr. Utterson intends to keep searching for Mr. Hyde, showing his determination. The passage describes how Mr. Utterson is troubled by questions about Hyde, engaging not just his intellect but also his imagination. Despite the lack of information obtained from Lanyon, Mr. Utterson continues to ponder the problem late into the night, suggesting his commitment to uncovering the mystery. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because there is no indication in the passage that the speaker is considering a name change, experiencing an identity crisis, or mistakenly looking for the wrong person. The passage focuses on Mr. Utterson's persistent search for Hyde, emphasizing his unwavering resolve.
