Q:

Two vessel P and Q contain milk and water in ratio 3 : 2 and 5 : 3 respectively. If 10 liters of the mixture is removed from vessels P and poured in vessel Q then ratio of milk to water in vessel Q becomes 8 : 5. Find the initial quantity of water in vessel Q.

A) 10 lit B) 6 lit
C) 16 lit D) 12 lit
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 10 lit

Explanation:

Given ratio of initial mixture of milk and water in Q = 5 : 3

Let the initial quantity of mixture in vessel Q = 8x

Let quantity of Milk = 5x and

Let quantity of water = 3x

According to the question,

5x + 10 x 353x + 10 x 25  = 85

=> 25x + 30 = 24x + 32

=> x = 2

Required Initial quantity of milk = 5x = 5 x 2 = 10 lit.

Q:

In a certain Business, the profit is 220% of the cost. If the cost increases by 25% but the selling price remains constant, approximately what percentage of the selling price is the profit ?

A) 61% B) 75%
C) 55% D) 81%
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 61%

Explanation:

Let C.P.= Rs. 100.

Then, Profit = Rs.220, 

S.P. = Rs.320.

 

New C.P. = 125% of Rs. 100 = Rs. 125 

New S.P. = Rs.320.

Profit = Rs. (320 - 125) = Rs. 195

 

Required percentage = 195320×100== 60.9 =~ 61%

Q:

Which compound is a nonelectrolyte?

A) C2H6O B) HCl
C) Na2CO3 D) NaCl
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) C2H6O

Explanation:

C2H6O is a Non-electrolyte.

 

An electrolyte is a compound that conducts an electric current when it is in an aqueous solution or melted. In order to conduct a current, a substance must contain mobile ions that can move from one electrode to the other. All ionic compounds are electrolytes. When ionic compounds dissolve, they break apart into ions which are then able to conduct a current ( conductivity ). Even insoluble ionic compounds such as CaCO 3 are electrolytes because they can conduct a current in the molten (melted) state.

 

A nonelectrolyte is a compound that does not conduct an electric current in either aqueous solution or in the molten state. Many molecular compounds, such as sugar or ethanol, are nonelectrolytes. When these compounds dissolve in water, they do not produce ions.

 

Electrolytes are of 3 types ---- Strong Electrolytes, Weak Electrolytes and Non Electrolytes.

 

Strong Electrolytes ---- Compounds which completely dissolves. ( NaCl, Na2Co3, HCl )

Weak Electrolytes ----- Compounds which do not completely dissolves.

Non Electrolytes ------ Compounds which do not dissolves at all.

Q:

A group of men can complete a job in K hours. After every 4 hours, half the number of men working at that point of time leave the job. Continuing this way if the job is finished in 16 hours, what is the value of K ?

A) 7 hrs B) 7.5 hrs
C) 8 hrs D) 8.25 hrs
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 7.5 hrs

Explanation:

Let there are L men

job requires LK man hours.

 

job completed in first 4 hrs = L x 4 = 4L

job completed in next 4 hrs = 4 x L/2 = 2L

job completed in next 4 hrs = 4 x L/4 = L

job completed in last 4 hrs = 4 x L/8 = L/2

4L + 2L + L + L/2 = KL

K = 7+1/2 = 7.5 hours.

Q:

Rajan's present age is three times his daughter's and nine-thirteenth of his mother's present age. The sum of the present ages of all three of them is 125 years. What is the difference between the present ages of Rajan's daughter and Rajan's mather ?

A) 32 years B) 48 years
C) 62 years D) 50 years
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 50 years

Explanation:

Let Rajan's present age be 'x' years.
=> Then his daughter's present age is = x/3 years.
His mother's present age = 13x/9 years
Now, according to the question,
x + x/3 + 13x/9 = 125
=> x = 125x9/25 = 45
Therefore, required difference = 13x/9 - x/3 = 13x - 3x/9 = 10x/9
=> 10 x 45/9 = 50 years.
