Which of the following is not included in immobilization process?(a) Absorption(b) Adsorption(c) Entrapment(d) Affinity |
|
Answer» Right answer is (a) Absorption The explanation is: Despite their excellent catalytic capabilities, enzymes and their properties must be improved prior to industrial implementation in many cases. Some aspects of enzymes that must be improved prior to implementation are stability, activity, inhibition by reaction products, and selectivity towards non-natural substrates. This may be accomplished through immobilization of enzymes on a solid material, such as a porous support. Immobilization of enzymes greatly simplifies the recovery process, enhances process control, and reduces operational costs. Many immobilization techniques exist, such as adsorption, covalent binding, affinity, and entrapment. |

The adoption of continuous culture is difficult for which type of systems?(a) Microbial(b) Animal(c) Plant(d) Bacterial |
|
Answer» Correct answer is (b) Animal To explain: The adoption of continuous culture for animal cell products is even more complex than for microbial systems. Furthermore, it is difficult to monitor the genetic stability of cells which are immobilized in a large scale reactor system. Thus, large scale animal cell products are still produced by batch methods. |

A fruit seller purchased certain quantity of fruits on Mon and can sell half of it in the morning and from the remaining he could sell half in the evening on the same day. On Tue, he purchased similar quantity as he purchased on Mon and mixes it with remaining quantity of fruits from previous day and sold 3/4th of total on that day if he left with 15 kg fruits on Tue, then how much purchased on Mon? 1. 64 kg2. 48 kg3. 36 kg4. 72 kg |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 48 kg GIVEN: Statement related to fruits sold by a fruit seller. CALCULATION: Let purchased quantity of fruits on Mon = 4x Sold in Mon morning = 4x/2 = 2x Sold in Mon evening = (4x – 2x)/2 = x Total quantity of fruits available to sell on Tue = (4x + x) = 5x Sold quantity of fruits on Tue = 5x × (3/4) = 3.75x Remaining quantity of fruits on Tue = 5x – 3.75x ⇒ 1.25x = 15 ⇒ x = 12 So, Purchased quantity of fruits by seller on Mon = 4x = 48 kg |

Let P is a prime number such that P2 + 7 are also a prime number then how many such values of P are possible?1. One2. Two3. Four4. Seven |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : One Given: P is a prime number and P2 + 7 is also gives a Prime number Concept Used: The numbers having exactly two factors, one and the number itself is called prime numbers Calculation: Let the P2 + 7 is equal to x ∴ X should be prime number If P is 2 ∴ X = P2 + 7 = (2)2 + 7 = 11, where 11 is a prime number If P is 3 ∴ X = P2 + 7 = (3)2 + 7 = 16, where 16 is even number If P is 5 ∴ X = P2 + 7 = (5)2 + 7 = 32, where 32 is even number So, all the values of P other than 2 give the values of X as the even number ∴ Only one value of P is possible which gives the X as a prime number Hence, option (1) is correct 2 is the only even prime number, other are the odd prime number P = 2, P2 + 7 = 4 + 7 = 11. |

If X and Y are two multiples of 7 then which of the following statement is incorrect?1. (X2 + Y2) is divisible by 72. (X2 - Y2) is divisible by 73. (X + Y) is divisible by 144. None of these |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 3 : (X + Y) is divisible by 14 Given: X and Y is multiple of 7 Concept Used: If the number is a multiple of given number then the number is also divisible by the given number Calculation: It is given in the question that X and Y are multiples of 7 ∴ X = 7m and Y = 7n Now, let check first option (X2 + Y2) is divisible by 7 ∴ (X2 + Y2) = ((7m)2 + (7n)2) = 49 (m2 + n2), which is divisible by 7 Now, let check second option (X2 - Y2) is divisible by 7 ∴ (X2 - Y2) = ((7m)2 - (7n)2) = 49 (m2 - n2), which is divisible by 7 Now, let check third option (X + Y) is divisible by 14 ∴ (X + Y) = ((7m) + (7n)) = 7 (m + n), which is divisible by 7 but not necessarily by 14 So, option third is incorrect Hence, option (3) is correct |

(221)n + (221)n + 1 where n is a natural number, is not divisible by?1. 172. 133. 24. 11 |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 11 Given: The given expression is (221)n + (221)n + 1 Concept Used: If the number is Divisible by the given number then it should be the multiple of that number Calculation: By using the exponential identity the given expression can be written as ∴ (221) n + (221) n + 1 = (221) n + (221) n × 221 Now, by taking (221) n common we get ∴ (221) n × (221 + 1) = (221) n × 222 Now, if the value of n is 1 ∴ (221) 1 × 222 = 13 × 17 × 2 × 111 So, the given expression is divisible by 17, 13 and 2 Hence, option (4) is correct |

Give the value of the azimuthal and magnetic quantum number of the electrons in an atom when n=4 |
|
Answer» The magnetic quantum number specifies the orientation in space of an orbital of given energy and shape. This number divides the subshell into individual orbitals which hold the electrons; there are (2L+1) orbitals in each subshell. Thus, the s subshell has only one orbital, the p subshell has three orbitals, and so on. For n=4, we have s,p,d,f subshells. For s subshell, we have 2×0+1=1. The total value of m will be 1+3+5+7=16 The principal quantum number is given as n=4 Thus the azimuthal quantum number has values, l=0 to (n−1). ∴l=0,1,2 and 3 |
