Q: What is the process that breaks down rocks into smaller pieces? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Choices: - erosion - bracing - bleaching - weathering A:
weathering

Q: What term is used to describe a compound that does not conduct an electric current in either aqueous solution or in the molten state? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: A nonelectrolyte is a compound that does not conduct an electric current in either aqueous solution or in the molten state. Many molecular compounds, such as sugar or ethanol, are nonelectrolytes. When these compounds dissolve in water, they do not produce ions. The Figure below illustrates the difference between an electrolyte and a nonelectrolyte. Choices: - kilocalorie - porous - xerophyte - nonelectrolyte A:
nonelectrolyte

Q: Q: What is the term for the steep sloped side of a sand dune? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: A sand dune has a gentle slope on the side the wind blows from. The opposite side has a steep slope. This side is called the slip face. Choices: - front face - break face - slide face - slip face A:
A: slip face

Question: Q: What term is used to describe molecules that contain carbon-nitrogen bonds? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: Amines are molecules that contain carbon-nitrogen bonds. The nitrogen atom in an amine has a lone pair of electrons and three bonds to other atoms, either carbon or hydrogen. Various nomenclatures are used to derive names for amines, but all involve the class-identifying suffix ine as illustrated here for a few simple examples:. Choices: - compounds - ions - nitrites - amines A:
Answer: amines

The Pluto-Charon system is sometimes called a double dwarf planet ( Figure above ). Two smaller moons, Nix and Hydra, were discovered in 2005. Choices: - six - two - four - three A:
**Answer**
three

Q: What is the term for a disturbance in matter that causes the transfer of energy from place to place? Read this paragraph and choose the correct option from the provided answers: A mechanical wave is a disturbance in matter that transfers energy from place to place. A mechanical wave starts when matter is disturbed. An example of a mechanical wave is pictured in Figure below . A drop of water falls into a pond. This disturbs the water in the pond. What happens next? The disturbance travels outward from the drop in all directions. This is the wave. A source of energy is needed to start a mechanical wave. In this case, the energy comes from the falling drop of water. Choices: - nucleation - flooding wave - temperature wave - mechanical wave A:
mechanical wave
