Q:

If the price of diesel increases by 25% and Karthik intends to spend only an additional 15% on diesel, by how much % will he reduce the quantity of diesel purchased ?

A) 6.67 % B) 8 %
C) 7.41 % D) 9 %
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 8 %

Explanation:

Let the price of 1 litre of diesel be Rs.x and let Karthik initially buy 'y' litres of diesel.
Therefore, he would have spent Rs. xy on diesel.

When the price of diesel increases by 25%, the new price per litre of diesel is 1.25x.

Karthik intends to increase the amount he spends on diesel by 15%.
i.e., he is willing to spend xy + 15% of xy = 1.15xy

Let the new quantity of diesel that he can get be 'q'.
Then, 1.25x x q = 1.15xy
Or q = (1.15/1.25)y = 0.92y.

As the new quantity that he can buy is 0.92y, he gets 0.08y lesser than what he used to get earlier.

Or a reduction of 8%.

Q:

Which ionization process requires the most energy?

A) C3+ (g) → C4+ (g) + e- B) C (g) → C+ (g) + e-
C) C2+ (g) → C3+ (g) + e- D) C+ (g) → C2+ (g) + e-
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) C3+ (g) → C4+ (g) + e-

Explanation:

We know that each successive IE is greater than the previous one, because each ionization process removes one electron and hence increases the total attractive force on the remaining electrons from the nucleus. Hence, C3+ (g) → C4+ (g) + e- needs more energy.
