Screenshot_(8)1522302473.png image

A) 4 B) 3
C) 2 D) 1
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 2

Explanation:

Here the most stable carbocation is the option (2).

 

Carbocations are always hungry for electrons. The stability of carbocations increases from primary to secondary to tertiary. Here, option (c) shows the most stable carbocation because it can easily withdraw electrons from two other carbon atoms and the more electronegative oxygen atom.

 

Carbocation stability depends on hyperconjugation. The tertiary carbocation is stabilized by electron releasing inductive effect.

Q:

A man is riding a bike with front and back wheel circumference of 40 inches and 70 inches respectively. If the man rides the bike on a straight road without slippage, how many inches will the man have travelled when the front wheel has made 15 revolutions more than the back wheel?

A) 1100 B) 1300
C) 1400 D) 1200
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 1400

Explanation:

Given the ratio of the circumference of front wheel  is 40 inches and back wheel is 70 inches. 

 

Distance covered = Circumference of the wheel × No. of Revolutions made by the wheel

 

If n is the number of revolutions made by back wheel, the number of revolutions made by front wheel is n+15

 

Distance covered by both the wheels is the same

 

i.e, 40*(n+15)=70n

 

 n=20 

 

 

 

                Front wheel      :      Back Wheel 

 

 Circumference       40      :      70 

 

 Revolutions           35      :      20

 

 

 

Distance covered  :  40×35 = 70×20 = 1400 inches.

LCM of 4, 6, 8 and 10 = 120
120) 1000 (8
960
------
40

The least number of four digits which is divisible by 4, 6, 8 and 10 => 1000 + 120 - 40 = 1080.

Q:

From a tank of petrol, which contains 200 litres of petrol, the seller replaces each time with kerosene when he sells 40 litres of petrol(or its mixture). Everytime he sells out only 40 litres of petrol(pure or impure). After replacing the petrol with kerosen 4th time, the total amount of kerosene in the mixture is 

A) 81.92L B) 96L
C) 118.08L D) None of these
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 118.08L

Explanation:

The amount of petrol left after 4 operations  

200 × 1-402004  

200 × 454  

200 × 256625  

= 81.92 litres

 

Hence the amount of kerosene = 200 - 81.92 = 118. 08 litres

A) 85 km/hr B) 95 km/hr
C) 105 km/hr D) 120 km/hr
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 120 km/hr

Explanation:

Initial speed = 80km/hr
Total distance = 80 x 10 = 800km
New speed = 800/4 =200km/hr
Increase in speed = 200 - 80 = 120km/hr

Q:

One-third of the boys and one-half of the girls of a college participated in a sport. If the number of participating students is 300, out of which 100 are boys. What is the total number of students in the college?

A) 500 B) 300
C) 600 D) 700
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 700

Explanation:

Let number of boys in the school = x

Let number of girls in the school = y

Number of students participated in the sports = 300

Out of which boys = 100

but given number of boys participated in sports = x/3

=> x/3 = 100

=> x = 300

Remaining girls = 300 - 100 = 200

=> y/2 = 200

=> y = 400

Therefore, total number of students in the school = x + y = 300 + 400 = 700
