Aria needs to make a salt solution for her school project. She needs to mix the salt and water in order to obtain the solution. Which of the following would be a better option with relation to its surface area to volume ratio, in order to achieve the salt solution in the least possible time:
Sea salt, as it decreases the surface area to volume ratio as it has tiny particles
Himalayan Rock Salt, this decreases the surface area to volume ratio as it is wider
Table Salt, this increases the surface area to volume ratio as it has several tiny particles
Himalayan Rock Salt, this increases the surface area to volume ratio as it is larger
When a car is driven, it uses fuel in order for it to function. A combustion reaction occurs simultaneously. During this reaction, energy is produced and transferred to the surroundings. Which of the following is not an example of how this energy can be transferred to the surroundings:
Motion of the car in the forward direction (Kinetic Energy)
Large noises as the car moves (Sound Energy)
Light sparks when the car brakes (Light Energy)
Heating of the car (Heat Energy)
A reaction that occurs in the atmosphere follows the following word equation:

Kwashiorkor
Scurvy
Rickets
Bount’s Disease
Every morning Samuel has a peanut butter and jelly sandwich for breakfast before he goes to school. He learnt online that consuming too many carbohydrates is bad for one's health, so he decided to perform a test to see if the sandwich he enjoys every morning contains starch. When he puts Iodine solution on the bread sample, what should he observe if it contains starch?
The sample stays brownish-yellow.
The sample expands to twice its original size
The sample turns purple in colour
The sample turns blue-black in colour
Formula One is an international auto racing competition that occurs every year, in which multiple cars compete for 1st position on the circuit.
