  1. What is a block in the context of blockchain technology?

    Answer: A container for grouped transactions

    A block is a digital container that stores a group of transactions and is linked to previous blocks in the chain through cryptographic hashes.

  2. What ensures immutability in a blockchain?

    Answer: Cryptographic hashing and consensus

    Immutability is ensured through cryptographic hashing and the consensus mechanism, which makes altering past blocks nearly impossible.

  3. What role do nodes play in a blockchain network?

    Answer: They validate and store blockchain data

    Nodes are computers that participate in the blockchain network by validating and storing transactions and maintaining a copy of the distributed ledger.

  4. Which characteristic of blockchain ensures transparency?

    Answer: Distributed ledger

    Blockchain's distributed ledger allows all participants to access and verify the same data, which fosters transparency.

  5. What is the purpose of a consensus mechanism in blockchain?

    Answer: To validate transactions and state

    Consensus mechanisms help nodes in a decentralized network agree on the validity of transactions and the current state of the blockchain.

  6. Which technology allows smart contracts to operate on blockchain?

    Answer: Smart contract logic on blockchain

    Smart contracts are self-executing agreements written in code and hosted on blockchain platforms like Ethereum.
