  23. Radioactivity • Which of the following equations represents a nuclear fission reaction? • A. • B. • C. • D. • Answer – A The equation in choice A shows one large nucleus disintegrating into two smaller atomic nuclei, so choice A is correct. Choices B and D are incorrect because the reactions involve radioactive decay, not fusion. Choice C is incorrect because the equation represents a nuclear fusion reaction, not fission. Four smaller nuclei fuse together to produce one larger atomic nucleus.

  26. Phase Change • In space, the pressure is essentially zero and constant. The path in the phase diagram must be at such a low pressure that an increase in temperature from incoming solar radiation will cause a phase change from solid to vapor. This means choice A is correct. Choice B is incorrect because the pressure is too high. This path would occur at normal atmospheric pressure. Choices C and D are incorrect. The temperature does not remain constant while the pressure changes in the near vacuum of space.

  28. Acids and Bases • Which of the following substances, when dissolved in water, will turn red litmus paper blue? • A. KOH • B. NaCl • C. H2O • D. H2SO4 • Answer – A Choice A is the correct answer. Potassium hydroxide (KOH) contains the hydroxide ion (OH−). This ion will accept a proton (H+), so it is basic and will turn red litmus paper blue. Choice B is incorrect because NaCl is a neutral salt. Water is neutral as well, so choice C is incorrect. Choice D is incorrect because H2SO4 is a strong acid. It will turn blue litmus paper red.

  29. Acids and Bases • Borax detergent is dissolved in water. The solution turns red litmus paper blue and feels slippery to the touch. Which pH is possible for the solution? • A. 1.5 • B. 5.0 • C. 7.0 • D. 9.5 • Answer – D
