(Answer to Q. 1)  ANS: C
Because medical aerosols contain particles of many different sizes (are heterodisperse), the aver-age particle size is expressed with a measure of central tendency, such as MMAD for cascade impaction or volume median diameter (VMD) for laser diffraction.

(Answer to Q. 2)  ANS: D
When aerosol particles leave suspension in gas they deposit on (attach to) a surface.

(Answer to Q. 3)  ANS: B
For drug delivery systems, emitted dose describes the mass of drug leaving the mouthpiece of a nebulizer or inhaler as aerosol.

(Answer to Q. 4)  ANS: D
An aerosol is a suspension of solid or liquid particles in gas.
