Q:

What is the conjugate base of H2O?

A) NH3+ B) OH-
C) H2O D) All the above
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) OH-

Explanation:

A conjugate acid, is a species formed by the reception of a proton (H+) by a base—in other words, it is a base with a hydrogen ion added to it.

On the other hand, a conjugate base is what is left over after an acid has donated a proton during a chemical reaction. Hence, a conjugate base is a species formed by the removal of a proton from an acid.

Because some acids are capable of releasing multiple protons, the conjugate base of an acid may itself be acidic.

Represented as the following chemical reaction:

Acid + Base ⇌ Conjugate Base + Conjugate Acid

 

The water molecule is the conjugate acid of the hydroxide ion after the latter received the hydrogen proton donated by ammonium. On the other hand, ammonia is the conjugate base for the acid ammonium after ammonium has donated a hydrogen ion towards the production of the water molecule. We can also refer to OH- as a conjugate base of H2O, since the water molecule donates a proton towards the production of NH+4 in the reverse reaction, which is the predominating process in nature due to the strength of the base NH3 over the hydroxide ion.

Q:

Solve the number puzzle

number_puzzle1540890829.jpg image

A) 2 B) 3
C) 0 D) Can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 3

Explanation:

In the given number puzzle,

Sum of Row 1 = 14

Sum of Row 2 = 23

Sum of Row 3 = 13 + ?

 

Sum of Column 1 = 16 

Sum of Column 2 = 23 

Sum of Column 3 = 11 + ?

 

Diagonal 1 sum = 17

Diagonal 2 sum = 14 + ?

 

From the above analysis,

Sum of Row 2 = Sum of Column 2 = 23

Sum of Row 1 = Sum of Column 3 = 14 = 11 + ?    .............(1)

Sum of Row 3 = Sum of Column 1 = 16 = 13 + ?    .............(2)

Diagonal 1 sum = Diagonal 2 sum = 17 = 14 + ?    .............(3)

  

Hence,

From (1), (2) & (3)

? = 3

Q:

In what ratio must wheat at Rs. 3.20/kg be mixed with wheat at Rs. 2.90/kg so that the mixture be worth Rs. 3/kg?

A) 1:2 B) 3:2
C) 2:1 D) 2:3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2:1

Explanation:

Given rate of wheat at cheap = Rs. 2.90/kg

Rate of wheat at cost = Rs. 3.20/kg

Mixture rate = Rs. 3/kg

Ratio of mixture = 

          2.90                              3.20

                              3

(3.20 - 3 = 0.20)            (3 - 2.90 = 0.10)

 

0.20 : 0.10 = 2:1

 

Hence, wheat at Rs. 3.20/kg be mixed with wheat at Rs. 2.90/kg in the ratio of 2:1, so that the mixture be worth Rs. 3/kg.

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Firmware

Explanation:

The programs which are as permanent as hardware and stored in ROM are known as Firmware.

 

Data stored in ROM can only be modified slowly, with difficulty, or not at all, so it is mainly used to store firmware (software that is closely tied to specific hardware, and unlikely to need frequent updates) or application software in plug-in cartridges.
