NH3 oxidation number?

A) -1 B) +1
C) 0 D) -3
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 0

Explanation:

NH3, Ammonia is a neutral compound as the individual oxidation numbers elements that make up the compound NH3 are Nitrogen (N) and Hydrogen (H) sum to zero. 

We do not speak of the oxidation number of a molecule. We can speak of the oxidation numbers of the individual elements that make up the compound.

 

Here the oxidation number of Nirogen is -3 and that of Hydrogen is +1.

Now, NH3 = 1(-3) + 3(+1) = -3 + 3 = 0.

A) 1 B) 6
C) 5/2 D) 3/2

Explanation:

The given series is 1/2, 1, 3/2, 6, 5/2, 3

1/2

1/2 + 1/2 = 1

1 + 1/2 = 3/2

3/2 + 1/2 = 2 (Not 6)

2 + 1/2 = 5/2

5/2 + 1/2 = 3

 

Hence, the odd man in the given number series is 6.

A) 62 B) 68
C) 71 D) 73
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 62

Explanation:

The given number sequence is 101, 98, 93, 86, 75, ?

101

101 - 3 = 98

98 - 5 = 93

93 - 7 = 86

86 - 11 = 75

75 - 13 = 62

 

Here the series follows a pattern that consecutive subtraction of prime numbers.

 

Hence, the next number in the sequence is 62.

Q:

Out of three numbers, the first is twice the second and is half of the third. If the average of the three numbers is 56, what will be the sum of the highest number and the lowest number?

A) 120 B) 160
C) 80 D) 60
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 120

Explanation:

Let the three numbers be x, y, z.

From the gien data,

x = 2y ....(1)

x = z/2 => z = 2(2y) = 4y .....(From 1)  ...........(2)

Given average of three numbers = 56

Then,

 

x + y + z3 = 562y + y + 4y3 = 56  (From 1 & 2)7y = 56 x 3y = 24

Now,

x = 2y => x = 2 x 24 = 48

z = 4y = 4 x 24 = 96

 

Now, the highest number is z = 96 & smallest number is y = 24

 

Hence, required sum of highest number and smallest number

= z + y

= 96 + 24

= 120.
