Explanation:

First Sub - Question (Metric Prefixes)
Brief Explanations

Metric prefixes represent powers of 10. The common metric prefixes from least (smallest power of 10) to greatest (largest power of 10) are: yocto (y, \(10^{-24}\)), zepto (z, \(10^{-21}\)), atto (a, \(10^{-18}\)), femto (f, \(10^{-15}\)), pico (p, \(10^{-12}\)), nano (n, \(10^{-9}\)), micro (μ, \(10^{-6}\)), milli (m, \(10^{-3}\)), centi (c, \(10^{-2}\)), deci (d, \(10^{-1}\)), deca (da, \(10^{1}\)), hecto (h, \(10^{2}\)), kilo (k, \(10^{3}\)), mega (M, \(10^{6}\)), giga (G, \(10^{9}\)), tera (T, \(10^{12}\)), peta (P, \(10^{15}\)), exa (E, \(10^{18}\)), zetta (Z, \(10^{21}\)), yotta (Y, \(10^{24}\)). But if we consider the more commonly used smaller - to - larger order for basic metric prefixes (excluding the very small and very large ones like yocto, zepto etc. that are less common in basic usage), a common order is: milli, centi, deci, (base unit), deca, hecto, kilo. Wait, no, actually the correct order from least (smallest magnitude) to greatest (largest magnitude) for the prefixes in terms of their factor:

  1. milli (factor \(10^{- 3}\))
  2. centi (factor \(10^{-2}\))
  3. deci (factor \(10^{-1}\))
  4. (base unit, factor \(10^{0}\))
  5. deca (factor \(10^{1}\))
  6. hecto (factor \(10^{2}\))
  7. kilo (factor \(10^{3}\))

But if we include more prefixes, the full order with the standard prefixes (from smallest to largest) is:

  1. milli
  2. centi
  3. deci
  4. (base)
  5. deca
  6. hecto
  7. kilo

(Note: There are smaller prefixes like micro, nano etc. and larger like mega, giga etc., but the question might be referring to the basic set around the base unit. If we consider the full set of metric prefixes in order of increasing magnitude (from least to greatest value of the factor they represent):

The correct order of metric prefixes from least (smallest factor) to greatest (largest factor) is:

  1. milli (\(10^{-3}\))
  2. centi (\(10^{-2}\))
  3. deci (\(10^{-1}\))
  4. (base unit, \(10^{0}\))
  5. deca (\(10^{1}\))
  6. hecto (\(10^{2}\))
  7. kilo (\(10^{3}\))
Brief Explanations

Physical properties are characteristics of a substance that can be observed or measured without changing the substance's chemical identity. The seven types of physical properties are:

  1. Color - the visual appearance of the substance.
  2. Odor - the smell of the substance.
  3. Density - mass per unit volume (\(

ho=\frac{m}{V}\)).

  1. Melting point - the temperature at which a solid turns to liquid.
  2. Boiling point - the temperature at which a liquid turns to gas.
  3. Solubility - the ability to dissolve in a solvent.
  4. Conductivity - the ability to conduct heat or electricity.
Brief Explanations

A chemical change is a change in which the chemical composition of a substance is altered. Three common types of evidence for a chemical change are:

  1. Formation of a precipitate - a solid forms from a solution.
  2. Evolution of a gas - gas bubbles are produced.
  3. Change in color - a new color appears that is not due to physical mixing.

Answer:

  1. milli
  2. centi
  3. deci
  4. (base unit, e.g., meter, gram, liter)
  5. deca
  6. hecto
  7. kilo
