2.82 g of glucose is dissolved in 30 g of water. Calculate the mole fraction of glucose and water?

Answer»

Mass of glucose = 2.82 g 

No. of moles of glucose = \(\frac{2.82}{180}\) = 0.016

Mass of water = 30g = \(\frac{20}{18}\) = 1.67

XH20 = \(\frac{1.67}{1.67 +0.016}\) = \(\frac{1.67}{1.686}\) = 0.99

∴xH20  + xxglucose = 1 

0.99 + xglucose = 1 

xglucose = 1 – 0.99 = 0.01

Answer»

Given A.P is

117,104,91,78,.....

first term of this A.P is  a1​ = 117

second term of this A.P is  a2 ​= 104

 common difference of an A.P is given by

(i.e., d = an+1​−an​)

putting n = 1 in above equation

d = a2​−a1 ​= 104−117 = −13

hence common difference for this A.P is d = −13

the nth term of an A.P is given by.

an​=a1​+(n−1)d

⟹an​=117+(n−1)(−13)

⟹an​=117−13n+13

⟹an​=130−13n....eq(1)

for finding 10th term (a8​)of this A.P put n=8 in above eq(1)

⟹a8​=130−13×8

⟹a8​=130−104

⟹a8​=26

What is the least number of soldiers that can be drawn up in troops of 10, 12, 15, 18 and 20 soldiers, and also in the form of a solid square?1. 6252. 4003. 1804. 900

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : 900

In this type of problem, we find the LCM of five numbers first and then we look for what makes the LCM a perfect square.

1st term = 10 = 5 × 2

2nd term = 12 = 2 × 2 × 3

3rd term = 15 = 3 × 5

4th term = 18 = 2 × 3 × 3

5th term = 20 = 2 × 2 × 5

Hence, LCM ( 12,10,15,18,20)

⇒  180

Since the LCM= 180 is not a perfect square , we make it a perfect square by multiplying 5 ( which is the least value to be multiplied)

Then 180 × 5 = 900 = 302

Therefore, 900 solider can be drawn up in the form of a square.

The ratio between the age of Father and Mother is 8 : 7. After 8 years, the total age of the father and mother is 91 years. Find the present age of the father.1. 40 years2. 36 years3. 30 years4. 35 years5. 45 years

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 40 years

Given:

The ratio between the age of Father and Mother is 8 : 7.

After 8 years, the total age of father and mother is 91 years

Calculation:

Let present age of father and mother be a and b years respectively.

⇒ a : b = 8 : 7

⇒ a = 8(b/7)

Then,

⇒ (a + 8) + (b + 8) = 91

⇒ a + b = 75

After solving,

a = 40 years and b = 35 years

∴ The present age of father is 40 years.

Answer» Correct Answer - Option 1 : 8 : 13

Given:

Let present age of Ram and Raj be a years and b years respectively.

Calculation:

⇒ a + b = 42

⇒ a = b/2 + 3

⇒ 2a - 6 = b

Solving,

The present age of Ram = 16 years

The present age of Raj = 26 years

∴ Required ratio = 16 : 26 = 8 : 13

P = SP - CP

Profit percent = (P/CP) × 100

where, 

P is Profit

SP is Selling price 

CP is Cost price

Calculations:

According to the question, we have

Profit gained by the shopkeeper is

P = SP - CP

⇒ P = Rs. 2,568 - Rs. 2,400

⇒ P = Rs. 168

Now, Profit percentage is

Profit percent = (P/CP) × 100

⇒ Profit percent = (168/2400) × 100

⇒ Profit percent = 168/24

⇒ Profit percent = 7%

∴ The profit percentage gained by the shopkeeper is 7%.

If \( x \) and \( y \) are any positive integers, then \( \left(x^{2}-x\right)+\left(y^{2}-y\right) \) is always. \( (x \neq 1, y \neq 1) \) (A) even number (B) odd number (C) prime number (D) both even and odd are possible

Answer»

(x2 - x) + (y2 - y)

 = x(x - 1) + y(y - 1)

=  even

\(\because\) x(x - 1) is always even for an integer.

\(\therefore\) x(x - 1) is even & y(y - 1) is even

⇒ x(x - 1) + y(y - 1) is even

⇒ (x2 - x) + (y2 - y) is even

Find radius of the circle \( 2 x^{2}+2 y^{2}+p x+p y \).

Answer»

The given equation of circle is

2x2 + 2y2 + px + py = 0

⇒ x2 + y2 + p/2 x + p/2 y = 0 (Dividing both sides by 2)

⇒ (x2 + p/2 x + p2/16) + (y2 + p/2 y + p2/16) - p2/16 - p2/16 = 0

(Adding and subtracting p2/16 in L.H.S)

⇒ (x + p/4)2 + (y + p/4)2 = 2p2/16 = p2/8

By comparing (x - h)2 + (y - k)2 = r2, we get

h = \(\frac{-p}4\) and k = \(\frac{-p}4\)

and r2 = p2/8

⇒ r = r/22

Hence, radius of the circle is r = p/22

Here circle passing through (0,2)(3,0) and (3,2) 

6g + C = -9 …. (2) 

4f + C = 4 …. (3) 

6g + 4f + c = -13 …. (4) 

6g – 4 = -13 6g = -9 g = \(\frac{-3}{2}\)

4f – 9 = 13 

4f = -4 f = -1 

- 4 + c = -4 c = 0 (1) 

⇒ x2 + y2 – 6x – 2y = 0
