Question

Fill in the blank with the most appropriate option:
__________ is heavier, a kilo of gold or a kilo of feather?

• A. What
• B. Which
• C. How much
• D. Who

Answer 1

The correct option is B Which

Options A and B: When the question requires a choice between a number of items, 'which' is more formal, compared to 'what'.

The given question requires a choice between the weight of one kilo of 'gold' and 'feather' each. Hence option B is correct and A is incorrect.

Option C: 'How much' asks about the quantity or value of something. It does not address the choice, which is the question here.

Option D: 'Who' refers to a person. It does not address things (like gold and feathers).

Hence options C and D are incorrect.
