Test: Filling and Lifting - 2 - Class 3 MCQ

A standard teaspoon holds about 5 milliliters of liquid.

A bag of sugar is the heaviest item listed here, and kilograms (kg) are typically used to measure the weight of objects that are relatively heavy or in larger quantities. A cup of tea, a raindrop, and a feather would typically be measured in grams (g), as they are much lighter than a bag of sugar.

1 liter = 1000 milliliters (mL). So, 500 mL is half of 1 liter, which makes it less than 1 liter.

1 liter = 1000 milliliters. So, to convert 3 liters to milliliters:

3 liters × 1000 mL/liter = 3000 mL

Thus, a jug that holds 3 liters holds 3000 milliliters.

A teaspoon is a small utensil typically used for measuring small amounts of liquid, usually holding around 5 milliliters. In comparison:

• A bucket holds a large amount of liquid.
• A bottle holds more than a teaspoon but less than a bucket.
• A mug can hold more liquid than a teaspoon.

Therefore, a teaspoon would likely hold the least amount of liquid.

Capacity refers to the amount of liquid a container can hold, often measured in units like liters (L), milliliters (mL), or gallons. It doesn't relate to the weight or speed of the liquid, but rather the volume it can store.

The best unit to measure the water in a swimming pool is liters (L). Swimming pools typically hold large volumes of water, and liters are the standard unit for measuring liquids in everyday situations.
