TASK DEFINITION: In this task you will be given a passage and a yes/no question based on the passage. You should answer the question using the information from the passage.
PROBLEM: passage: The number of valence electrons of an element can be determined by the periodic table group (vertical column) in which the element is categorized. With the exception of groups 3--12 (the transition metals), the units digit of the group number identifies how many valence electrons are associated with a neutral atom of an element listed under that particular column.
 question: the number of valence electrons in an atom of an element is equal to the group number?

SOLUTION: Yes

PROBLEM: passage: Although allergic cross reaction with sulfa drugs has been occasionally reported, bacitracin-containing topical preparations remain a possible alternative to silver sulfadiazine (Silvadene) for burn patients with a sulfa allergy.
 question: can you use bacitracin with a sulfa allergy?

PROBLEM: passage: In geometry, a square is a regular quadrilateral, which means that it has four equal sides and four equal angles (90-degree angles, or (100-gradian angles or right angles). It can also be defined as a rectangle in which two adjacent sides have equal length. A square with vertices ABCD would be denoted ◻ (\displaystyle \square ) ABCD.
 question: does a square have to have right angles?

SOLUTION:
Yes
