Paramagnetism is a property due to the presence of unpaired electrons. In case of transition metals, as they contain unpaired electrons in the (n-1)d orbitals, most of the transition metal ions and their compounds are paramagnetic. Paramagnetism increases with increases in number of unpaired electrons. Magnetic moment is calculated from `Spin only formula` viz. `mu = sqrt(n(n+2)) B.M. n = no`. of unpaired electrons Similarly the colour of the compounds of transition metals may be attributed to the presence of incomplete (n-1)d subshell. When an electron from a lower energy of d-orbital is excited to a higher energy d-orbital, the energy of excitation corresponding to the frequency of light absorbed. This frequency generally lies in the visible region. The colour observed correponds to complementary colour of the light absorbed. The frequency of the light absorbed is determined by the nature of the ligand. Which of the following pair of compounds is expected to exhibit same colour in aqueous solution.A. `FeCl_2, CuCl_2`B. `VOCl_2 , CuCl_2`C. `VOCl_2, FeCl_2`D. `FeCl_2, MnCl_2` |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - B Both `V^(4+)([Ar]^18 d^1 4s^0)` and `Cu^(2+)([Ar]^18 d^9 4s^0)` have one unpaired electron in the d-orbital and thus exhibit same colour. |

Directions: Below question is followed by two statements I and II. You have to determine whether the data given in the statements are sufficient for answering the question. You should use the data and your knowledge of Mathematics to choose the best possible answer.What is difference between the present age of mother and Ram?Statement I: 2 years ago, the average age of Ram and his father is 30 years.Statement II: The difference between the age of father and mother is 5 years.1.If the data in statement I alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement II alone are not sufficient to answer the question.2.If the data in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question, while the data in statement I alone are not sufficient to answer the question.3.If the data either in statement I alone or in statement II alone is sufficient to answer the question.4.If the data even in both the statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question.5. If the data in both statements I and II together are needed to answer the question. |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 4 : If the data even in both the statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. From statement I Let present age of father, mother and Ram be a years, b years and c years respectively. (c - 2) + (a - 2) = 60 a + c = 60 From statement II a - b = 5 Solving, b + c = 55 We can not find the difference between the age of father and age of mother. ∴ the data even in both the statements I and II together are not sufficient to answer the question. |

A man covers a distance of 22 km in 4 hours by initially walking and then jogging at speed of 4 km/hour and 10 km/hour, respectively. The distance covered by him during walking is1. 10 km2. 12 km3. 15 km4. 18 km |
|
Answer» Correct Answer - Option 2 : 12 km Given: Total distance covered = 22 km Time taken = 4 hours Speed of man when walking = 4 km/hr Speed of man when hogging = 10 km/hr Formula used: Distance = Speed × Time Calculation: Let the walking time of the man be x hours then jogging time be (4 – x) hours Now, A/Q Speed × Time = Distance ⇒ 4x + 10(4 – x) = 22 ⇒ 4x + 40 – 10x = 22 ⇒ 6x = 18 ⇒ x = 3 Distance covered by man during walking = 4 × 3 = 12 ∴ The distance covered by man during walking is 12 km |

Write a short note on encystment in amoeba. |
|
Answer» During unfavorable conditions (increase or decrease in temperature and scarcity of food) Amoeba withdraws its pseudopodia and secretes a three-layered, protective, chitinous cyst wall around it and becomes inactive. This phenomenon is called encystment. When conditions become favourable, the encysted Amoeba divides by multiple fission and produces many minute amoebae called pseudopodiospore or amoebulae. The cyst wall absorbs water and breaks off liberating the young pseudopodiospores, each with a fine pseudopodia. They feed and grow rapidly to lead an independent life. |

Read the following passage and answer the questions set on it:Smoking kills 9,00,000 people every year in India. World Health Organization (WHO) estimates that smoking-related deaths worldwide will surpass 9 million annually by 2020, with 7 million of those deaths occurring in developing nations.People start smoking for a variety of different reasons. Some think it looks cool. Others start because their family members or friends smoke. Statistics show that about 9 out of 10 tobacco users start smoking before they are 18 years old. Most adults who started smoking in their teens, never expected to become addicted. That is why people say it is just so much easier to not start at all.It is a hard habit to break because tobacco contains a drug called nicotine. This drug is highly addictive. Like heroin or other addictive drugs, the body and mind quickly become so used to the nicotine in cigarettes that a person needs to have it just to feel normal. The nicotine can raise one’s blood pressure, heart rate and oxygen demand for muscles, mainly for the heart. Moreover, the second hand smoke which comes from two places i.e., smoke breathed out by the person who smokes and smoke from the end of a burning cigarette causes health effects including cancer, breathing problems and asthma. Smoking is one of the most preventable causes of death in our society. It is an expensive habit. The tobacco industry makes billions of rupees each year and they do not care about anyone’s existence. All they want is money. The more cigarettes one buys, the more the company earns.Today’s generation needs to beware of electronic cigarettes (ecigarettes). This contains cancer-causing chemicals and other toxins. This also has a compound used in antifreeze. These battery-operated devices use cartridges filled with nicotine flavorings and other chemicals and convert them into a vapour that is inhaled by the user. Counselling and medical help need to be sought for smoking addicts.1. According to WHO, where do maximum deaths occur by smoking?2. At what age do people start to smoke?3. What did the teenagers never expect when they started smoking?4. Name the drug in tobacco.5. What is the effect of nicotine on the heart?6. What is the most preventable cause of death in our society?7. What does the tobacco industry care about?8. ……………….. is needed to help smoking addicts to come out of it.9. Smoking is an (addiction/addictive) habit.10. Add a prefix to the word ‘expected’ to form the antonym, ……………..(non, un, re) |

Mention any four disadvantages of multi purpose projects. |

Answer» (i) Adverse effect on the fertility of the soil: Due to the construction of dams, there are no annual floods in the river. And because of this, the soil of the downstream region does not get nutrient rich “silt”. This decreases the fertility of the soil. (ii) Adverse impact on aquatic life: Due to the construction of dams on the rivers, the fish in the downstream area do not get sufficient nutrient material. Regulating and damming of rivers affect the natural flow of water causing poor sediment flow downward, and excessive sedimentation at the bottom of reservoir, resulting in rockier stream beds and poorer habitats for the rivers aquatic life. Dams also fragment rivers making it difficult for aquatic fauna to migrate for spawning i.e., to produce eggs. (iii) Displacement of local communities : The building of large dams results in displacement of local communities. The local people often have to give up their land and livelihood and their meagre access and control over resources for the greater food of the nation. (iv) Change in the cropping pattern : The multipurpose projects are responsible for providing assured means of irrigation to farmers. Due to this, most of the farmers have changed the cropping pattern shifting to water intensive and commercial crops. This has led to salinisation of soil leading to ecological imbalance. |

Calculate gross profit ratio from the following: revenue from operations Rs. 5,00,000; cost of revenue from operations Rs. 4,20,000; and purchases Rs. 3,60,000. |
|
Answer» Gross profit Ratio = (Gross profit)/(Revenue from operations) x 100 Gross profit Revenue from operation – cost of revenue from operation = Rs. 5,00,000 – Rs. 4,20,000 = Rs. 80,000 Gross profit ratio = 80000/500000 x 100 = 16% |
