ACT Science Tables

Interpreting data from a table showing the relationship between temperature and the rate of a chemical reaction, what can be inferred if the rate of reaction increases as the temperature increases?

• The rate of the reaction is inversely proportional to temperature.

• The rate of the reaction decreases with temperature.

• The rate of the reaction is not affected by temperature.

• The rate of the reaction increases with temperature.

In a table showing the population growth of a species over time, how can you determine the year with the highest population?

• By finding the year with the highest population value in the table.

• By counting the number of trees in the area

• By asking a psychic to predict the year

• By flipping a coin and guessing the year

In a table displaying the pH levels of different substances, how can you determine which substance is the most acidic?

• By measuring the temperature of the substance

• By finding the substance with the lowest pH level

• By finding the substance with the highest pH level

• By looking at the color of the substance

When examining a table of weather data, how can you identify the trend in temperature over a period of time?

• Count the number of sunny days

• Ask a meteorologist for their opinion

• Look for the highest temperature recorded

• Plot the data on a graph and look for consistent increase or decrease in temperature

Interpreting data from a table of plant growth under different light conditions, how can you determine the effect of light intensity on plant height?

• Ignore the data in the table and make assumptions based on personal experience

• Use a ruler to measure the distance between the plants

• Count the number of leaves instead of measuring plant height

• Compare the plant height under different light conditions in the table.

In a table showing the solubility of different substances at varying temperatures, how can you identify the substance with the highest solubility?

• By finding the substance with the highest value in the table at the given temperature.

• By checking the alphabetical order of the substances in the table.

• By finding the substance with the lowest value in the table at the given temperature.

• By looking at the color of the substance in the table.

When analyzing a table of enzyme activity at different pH levels, how can you determine the optimal pH for the enzyme?

• Select the pH level with the most neutral enzyme activity

• Look for the pH level at which the enzyme activity is highest.

• Look for the pH level with the highest temperature

• Choose the pH level with the lowest enzyme activity

Interpreting data from a table of animal behavior in different environments, how can you identify the environment that resulted in the highest activity level?

• By asking the animals which environment they prefer

• By comparing the activity levels in each environment and selecting the one with the highest average.

• By randomly selecting an environment without analyzing the data

• By choosing the environment with the lowest average activity level

In a table displaying the results of a physics experiment, how can you determine the relationship between two variables?

• By flipping a coin

• By counting the number of words in the table
