Section 1: Open-Ended Inquiry

OEQ 1: A student records the mass of a standard physics weight as “0.5”. Explain why this is incomplete[cite: 8, 11, 12, 13].

Model Answer: A physical quantity must include both a numerical magnitude and a unit[cite: 8, 11]. Without a unit (e.g., kg), “0.5” is merely a value and doesn’t specify the standard of measurement[cite: 13, 14].

OEQ 2: In the SI system, what are the base units for Thermodynamic Temperature and Amount of Substance?

Model Answer: The base unit for Thermodynamic Temperature is the Kelvin (K), and for Amount of Substance, it is the mole (mol).
