Accepted Answer

10 mg

Question 7

Which of the following best explains why water has a higher boiling point than methane ($$	ext{CH}_4$$)?

Accepted Answer

Water molecules form hydrogen bonds, which require more energy to break.

Question 13

Which of the following best describes the Doppler effect as it applies to sound?

Accepted Answer

The frequency of sound increases as the source moves toward the observer.

Question 14

Which of the following is a property of a buffer solution?

Accepted Answer

It resists changes in pH when small amounts of acid or base are added.

Question 15

Which of the following best describes the function of hemoglobin in the human body?

Accepted Answer

It transports oxygen from the lungs to tissues.

Question 16

A sample of gas occupies 2.0 L at 1.0 atm and 300 K. What will be its volume at 2.0 atm and 300 K? (Assume ideal gas behavior)

$$P_1V_1 = P_2V_2$$
