Note:

Electrolysis of NaCl produces Alkalinity.

12. Which of the following contain both ionic & covalent bond []

Correct Answer: (1) NaOH
Note:

13. A can do a work in 6 days. B takes 12 days. It takes as long as A & B would to working together. In how many days A & B complete work together? []

Correct Answer: (2) 3 days
Note:

A takes = 6 day

B B takes = 12 day

Total work (A and B LCM) = 12

Efficiency A = 1212=2\frac{12}{12} = 2

Efficiency B = 126=1\frac{12}{6} = 1

∴ Time by C = 122+1=4\frac{12}{2 + 1} = 4 days

Efficiency C = 124=3\frac{12}{4} = 3

Time taken by B & C together

= Total workTotal efficiency=124=3\frac{\text{Total work}}{\text{Total efficiency}} = \frac{12}{4} = 3 days

14. A can copy 75 pages in 25 hrs. A & B together can copy 135 pages in 27 hrs. In how much time can B copy 42 pages? []

Correct Answer: (3) 21 hours
Note:

A copies 25 pages in 25 hrs.

∴ Efficiency of A = 7525=3\frac{75}{25} = 3

A + B together copy 135 pages in 27 hrs

∴ Efficiency = 13527=5\frac{135}{27} = 5

A+B−A=5−3=2A + B - A = 5 - 3 = 2

or, A + B = 5
B = 5 - A
B = 2 efficiency

B takes copying 42 pages

=422=21 hrs= \frac{42}{2} = 21 \text{ hrs}

15. What is the National Tree of India? []
