A) 6 B) 12
C) 81 D) 315

Given the number series is 4, 6, 12, 30, 81, 315.

Here it follows a pattern that

4

4 x 1.5 = 6

6 x 2 = 12

12 x 2.5 = 30

30 x 3 = 90 not equals to 81

90 x 3.5 = 315

 

Hence the odd one in the series is 81.

Q:

If selling price is doubled, the profit triples. Find the profit percent ?

A) 100% B) 200%
C) 300% D) 400%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 100%

Explanation:

Let the C.P be Rs.100 and S.P be Rs.x, Then
The profit is (x-100)
Now the S.P is doubled, then the new S.P is 2x
New profit is (2x-100)
Now as per the given condition;
=> 3(x-100) = 2x-100
By solving, we get
x = 200
Then the Profit percent = (200-100)/100 = 100
Hence the profit percentage is 100%

Q:

6 months day and 6 months night - Country Name?

A) Nepal B) Tibet
C) Norway D) Iceland
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Norway

Explanation:

The case where there is 6 months day, and 6 months night could only happen on poles because The Earth is tilted on its axis.

The pole which is away (opposite direction of sun) from the Sun remains in complete darkness till it comes in front of the sun.

So we conclude that, countries at the poles have 6 months day, and 6 months night.

So countries close to these region have such cases like, Alaska, Antarctica, Norway etc.

Norway, the northernmost inhabited region of Europe, there is no sunset from approximately 19 April to 23 August. The extreme sites are the poles, where the sun can be continuously visible for half the year. The North Pole has midnight sun for 6 months from late March to late September.

5. Ethane

A) Paraffin > Octadecane > Neohexane > Hexane > Ethane B) Paraffin > Octadecane > Hexane > Neohexane > Ethane
C) Hexane > Paraffin > Octadecane > Neohexane > Ethane D) None of the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Paraffin > Octadecane > Hexane > Neohexane > Ethane

Explanation:

In hydrocarbon, the boiling point directly varies with the length of carbon chain. On increasing the number of carbon atom, the boiling point of the compound also increases. Paraffin contains highest number of carbon atoms whereas, ethane is comprised of two carbon atoms.

 

The decreasing order of boiling point of mention compounds is written as follows:

Paraffin > Octadecane > Hexane > Neohexane > Ethane
