Accepted Answer

Recalling ideas from long-term memory for an exam.

Question 12

A student wants to calculate the percentage of green balls in a box containing 50 green balls and 50 red balls. Which formula should they use?

Accepted Answer

$$	ext{Percentage} = \frac{	ext{Number of green balls}}{	ext{Total number of balls}} 	imes 100\%$$

Question 13

Which of the following is NOT recommended as an effective study habit for chemistry?

Accepted Answer
