1 / 5

What color is the supposedly cursed Hope Diamond?

The Hope Diamond is a deep, fancy dark grayish-blue color, weighing 45.52 carats. Its distinctive blue color is caused by trace amounts of boron within its crystal structure. Notably, it also exhibits a, sometimes considered "creepy" or "cursed," red phosphorescence when exposed to ultraviolet light. 

2 / 5

What is the frothy foam on top of a freshly poured beer called?

The frothy foam on top of a freshly poured beer is called the head (or sometimes the collar). It is a collection of bubbles—primarily carbon dioxide (CO2cap C cap O sub 2 𝐶𝑂2) released during pouring—that rises to the surface, held together by proteins from malt. A proper head enhances aroma, protects the beer from oxidation, and provides a creamy texture.

Who was the youngest member of the Jackson 5?

Randy Jackson (Steven Randall "Randy" Jackson) was the youngest member to join the Jackson 5, officially replacing his brother Jermaine in 1975 when the group moved to Epic Records. While Michael Jackson was the youngest of the original lineup, Randy was the youngest of the Jackson brothers and later became a key member.

Which naturally occurring element is heaviest by atomic weight?

Uranium (U), with an atomic number of 92 and a standard atomic weight of approximately 238.03, is recognized as the heaviest element found naturally in significant, stable amounts on Earth. While trace amounts of other elements like plutonium can be found, uranium remains the heaviest element that is not synthetic or solely the product of artificial, human-made reactions. 

5 / 5

Who wrote the operas "The Magic Flute" and "The Marriage of Figaro"?

Wolfgang Amadeus Mozart (1756–1791) wrote both The Magic Flute (Die Zauberflöte), which premiered in 1791, and The Marriage of Figaro (Le nozze di Figaro), which premiered in 1786. These renowned operas are cornerstones of the classical repertoire, composed during his prolific career in Vienna, Austria.
