Q:

The average age of A and B, 2 years ago was 26. If the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs, and B is 5 years younger to C, then find the difference between the age of A and C?

A) 11 yrs	B) 9 yrs
C) 7 yrs	D) 13 yrs

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 9 yrs

Explanation:

Let the present ages of A and B be 'x' and 'y' respectively

From the given data,

[(x-2) + (y-2)]/2 = 26

=> x+y = 56

But given the age of A, 5 years hence is 40 yrs => present age of A = 40 - 5 = 35 yrs

=> x = 35 => y = 56 - 35 = 21

=> Age of B = 21 yrs

Given B is 5 years younger to C,

=> Age of C = 21 + 5 = 26 yrs

=> Required Difference between ages of A and C = 35 - 26 = 9 yrs.

Q:

Which of the following is the strongest acid?

A) ClCH2COOH	B) BrCH2COOH
C) FCH2COOH	D) ICH2COOH

Answer & Explanation Answer: C) FCH2COOH

Explanation:

FCH₂COOH is the strongest acid out of all.

Since the electron withdrawing inductive effect (-I effect) of the halogens decreases in the order of F>Cl> Br> I , therefore the acidic strength of the α- halo acids decreases in the same order.

FCH₂COOH > ClCH₂COOH > BrCH₂COOH > ICH₂COOH.
