Q:

A train moving at 2/3 rd of its normal speed reaches its destination 20 minutes late. Find the normal time taken ?

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

Explanation:

Let the original speed and time is S and T
then distance = S x T
Now the speed changes to 2/3S and T is T+20
As the distance is same
S x T = 2/3Sx(T+20)
solving this we get t = 40 minutes
=40/60 = 2/3 hour

Q:

Rs. 7444 is divided among 5 ladies, 3 gents and 3 girls. The ratio of share of a lady, a gents and a girl is 7: 4: 3. What is the share of gents ?

A) Rs. 1595.14 B) Rs. 1793.4
C) Rs. 595.14 D) Rs. 1551.5
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Rs. 1595.14

Explanation:

Ratio of the share of a lady, a gents and a girl is 7 : 4 : 3
No of ladies, gents and girls are 5, 3, 3
Thus effective ratio of ladies, gents and girls is 7 x 5 : 4 x 3 : 3 x 3 = 35 : 12 : 9
so part of gents = (12/56) x 7444 = Rs. 1595.142
so part of 1 gents = 1595.142/3 = Rs. 531.71.

Q:

Which solution has the highest pH?

A) 50.0 mL 0.0500 M calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 (aq) B) 50.0 mL 0.0500 M sodium hydroxide, NaOH (aq)
C) 50.0 mL 0.0500 M nitric acid, HNO3 (aq) D) 50.0 mL 0.0500 M nitrous acid, HNO2 (aq)
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 50.0 mL 0.0500 M calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 (aq)

Explanation:

50.0 mL 0.0500 M calcium hydroxide, Ca(OH)2 (aq) has the highest pH value.

Sodium hydroxide and Calcium hydroxide are strong bases so they completely ionize in solution. Because they ionize at the same rate, and Calcium hydroxide has the higher pH calculated, then Calcium hydroxide, in fact, has the highest pH.

Nitric acid is a strong acid, so it completely ionizes in water. Whilst nitrous acid is a weak acid. Therefore, the nitric acid solution has the LOWEST ph.
