The answer is the second one: fragmented.

Explanation for each option:

  • Blocks: This term refers to the basic units of storage on a disk, but it does not describe how files are stored in relation to each other.
  • Fragmented: This is the correct answer. Fragmentation occurs when files are divided into pieces and scattered across different segments of the drive, which can slow down access times.
  • Contiguous: This term means that files are stored in a continuous sequence of blocks, which is the opposite of fragmentation.
  • Detached: This term is not typically used in the context of file storage on a drive.

In summary, files can end up in fragmented segments all over the drive, leading to decreased performance.

Classify each observation according to the order of reaction it describes. Zero-order reaction A plot of the concentration of the reactant versus time yields a straight line. First-order reaction The half-life of the reaction is independent of the initial concentration. A plot of the natural log of the concentration of the reactant versus time yields a straight line. Answer Bank As the initial concentration of the reactant increases, the half-life of the reaction becomes shorter. The rate constant has units of M · s^-1. The rate constant has units of M^-1 · s^-1.
