Practice Questions for C1000-179 Exam

The following practice questions are designed to reinforce key C1000-179 exam concepts and reflect common scenario-based decision points tested in the certification.

Question#1

You want to run a parameterized circuit on a real IBM Quantum backend.
Which sequence is correct for v2 primitives?

A. Submit the untranspiled circuit directly as a PUB and let the primitive map it
B. Transpile to the backend's ISA with a preset pass manager, then run the PUB (isa_circuit, params)
C. Bind the parameters, then call backend.run(bound_circuit)
D. Export the circuit with qasm3.dumps() and submit the string

Question#2

An EstimatorV2 job ran a single PUB pairing one circuit with an array of observables. The engineer now needs the array of computed expectation values from the returned result.
Which expression retrieves them?

A. job.result()[0].data.evs
B. job.result()[0].data.get_counts()
C. job.result().evs[0]
D. job.result()[0].expectation_values

Question#3

A circuit is created with qc = QuantumCircuit(2, 2), and several gates and measurements are added.
What does qc.width() return?

A. 2
B. 0
C. 4
D. 8

Question#4

Which parameter in the Qiskit Runtime Options class is used to specify the number of times a circuit is executed?

A. shots
