A) 48 B) 64
C) 90 D) 16

The given number series follows a pattern that,

56

56 + 8 = 64

64 - 16 = 48

48 + 32 = 80 (Not equal to 90)

80 - 64 = 16

Q:

A sum is equally invested in two different schemes on CI at the rate of 15% and 20% for two years. If interest gained from the sum invested at 20% is Rs. 528.75 more than the sum invested at 15%, find the total sum?

A) Rs. 7000 B) Rs. 4500
C) Rs. 9000 D) Rs. 8200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 9000

Explanation:

Let Rs. K invested in each scheme

Two years C.I on 20% = 20 + 20 + 20x20/100 = 44%

Two years C.I on 15% = 15 + 15 + 15x15/100 = 32.25%

Now,

(P x 44/100) - (P x 32.25/100) = 528.75

=> 11.75 P = 52875

=> P = Rs. 4500

 

Hence, total invested money = P + P = 4500 + 4500 = Rs. 9000.

Is rusting a physical or chemical change?

Answer

In chemistry rusting is called as oxidation. Oxidation is a chemical process where metal gains oxygen and become oxide. In rusting the Iron ore make a chemical reaction with the oxygen in the presence of water and environmental or atmospheric moisture to produce an Iron oxide. Iron oxide is otherwise called as rust.


The rusting of iron is a chemical change because it is two substances reacting together to make a new substance. 


 


Rusting would only be a physical change if iron molecules remained pure iron throughout the process.
