Convert 0.2 liters to milliliters.
- 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 1000 because there are 1000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 0.2 liters x 1000 = 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.

Convert 0.075 mg to micrograms.
- A. 75 mcg
- B. 7.5 mcg
- C. 0.75 mcg
- D. 750 mcg
Correct Answer: D
Rationale: To convert milligrams to micrograms, you need to multiply by 1000, not 10000. Therefore, to convert 0.075 mg to mcg, you multiply 0.075 by 1000, giving you 75 mcg. The correct answer is not provided in the choices, and the correct conversion is 75 mcg, which is not listed as an option. Choices A, B, and C are incorrect because they do not reflect the correct conversion factor. Choice D, 750 mcg, is a common mistake made by incorrectly adding a zero. It is important to remember that the conversion from milligrams to micrograms involves multiplying by 1000, not adding extra zeros.
What is 0.004 as a simplified ratio?
- A. 1:250
- B. 4:35
- C. 7:28
- D. 4:00
Correct Answer: A
Rationale: To convert 0.004 to a ratio, we first express it as 4/1000, which simplifies to 1/250. Hence, 0.004 is equivalent to the simplified ratio of 1:250. Choice B, 4:35, is incorrect as it does not reflect the correct conversion. Choice C, 7:28, is incorrect because it does not represent the simplified ratio of 0.004. Choice D, 4:00, is incorrect as it does not simplify to the original decimal value.
Convert 3,540 liters to milliliters (mL).
- A. 354,000 mL
- B. 3,540,000 mL
- C. 35,400 mL
- D. 35,400,000 mL
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert liters to milliliters, you need to multiply by 1,000 because there are 1,000 milliliters in 1 liter. Therefore, 3,540 liters 1,000 = 3,540,000 milliliters. Choices A, C, and D are incorrect because they do not correctly convert liters to milliliters. A, C, and D are off by a factor of 1,000, as they do not account for the conversion factor between liters and milliliters.
What is it called when base units are combined, such as g/mL for density?
- A. combined units
- B. derived units
- C. base units
- D. calculated units
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: The correct answer is B: derived units. When base units (such as grams or milliliters) are combined, as seen in g/mL (grams per milliliter) for density, they form derived units. Derived units measure complex quantities that are derived from combinations of base units. Choice A, 'combined units,' is incorrect as it does not specifically refer to the formation of new units from base units. Choice C, 'base units,' is incorrect because base units are the fundamental units from which all other units are derived, not the combinations of units. Choice D, 'calculated units,' is incorrect as it does not accurately describe the concept of combining base units to form a new unit like g/mL for density.
How many liters (L) are equal to 1 kiloliter?
- A. 100 liters
- B. 1,000 liters
- C. 10 liters
- D. 10,000 liters
Correct Answer: B
Rationale: To convert kiloliters to liters, you multiply by 1,000. Therefore, 1 kiloliter 1,000 = 1,000 liters. Choice A (100 liters) is incorrect because it represents only 1/10th of a kiloliter. Choice C (10 liters) is incorrect as it represents only 1/100th of a kiloliter. Choice D (10,000 liters) is incorrect as it is 10 times bigger than a kiloliter.
