Q:

Which combination of atoms can form a polar covalent bond?

A) H and Br B) H and H
C) Na and Br D) N and N
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) H and Br

Explanation:

Only H and Br form Polar Covalent Bond.

 

Covalent bonding:

Covalent bonding occurs when pairs of electrons are shared by atoms. Atoms will covalently bond with other atoms in order to gain more stability, which is gained by forming a full electron shell. By sharing their outer most (valence) electrons, atoms can fill up their outer electron shell and gain stability.

1. Polar Covalent Bond

2. Nonpolar Covalent Bond

 

1. Polar Covalent Bond:

A Polar Covalent Bond is created when the shared electrons between atoms are not equally shared. This occurs when one atom has a higher electronegativity than the atom it is sharing with. The atom with the higher electronegativity will have a stronger pull for electrons (Similiar to a Tug-O-War game, whoever is stronger usually wins). As a result, the shared electrons will be closer to the atom with the higher electronegativity, making it unequally shared.

 

2. Nonpolar Covalent Bond:

A Nonpolar Covalent Bond is created when atoms share their electrons equally. This usually occurs when two atoms have similar or the same electron affinity. The closer the values of their electron affinity, the stronger the attraction. This occurs in gas molecules; also known as diatomic elements. Nonpolar covalent bonds have a similar concept as polar covalent bonds; the atom with the higher electronegativity will draw away the electron from the weaker one.

 

Here H and H and N and N form Non-polar covalent bonds. Na and Br form the ionic bond.

Q:

What will be the cost of building a fence around a square plot with area equal to 289 sq ft, if the price per foot of building the fence is Rs. 58 ?

A) Rs. 3748 B) Rs. 3847
C) Rs. 3944 D) Rs. 3154
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) Rs. 3944

Explanation:

Let the side of the square plot be 'a' ft.
Given area of the plot (a x a) = 289 => a = 17
Length of the fence = Perimeter of the plot = 4a = 68 ft.
Cost of building the fence = 68 x 58 = Rs. 3944.

Q:

217 x 217 + 183 x 183 = ?

A) 84521 B) 87487
C) 80578 D) 78458
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 80578

Explanation:

2172+1832

 

= 200+172+200-172

 

It is in the form of a+b2+a-b2=2a2+b2

 

= 2(40000 + 289) = 80578.

Q:

Excluding stoppages, the average speed of a bus is 60 km/hr and including stoppages, the average speed of the bus is 40 km/hr. For how many minutes does the bus stop per hour ?

A) 2 hrs B) 20 min
C) 40 min D) 30 min
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 20 min

Explanation:

In 1hr, the bus covers 60 km without stoppages and 40 km with stoppages.

Stoppage time = time take to travel (60 - 40) km i.e 20 km at 60 km/hr.

stoppage time = 20/60 hrs = 20 min.

Q:

Happiness is to 517768399 as senipah is to

A) 9836715 B) 9386615
C) 9386715 D) 9386517
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: C) 9386715

Explanation:

If each consecutive letter in "happiness" relates to the consecutive numbers in 517768399, then H=5, A=1, P=7, I=6, N=8, E=3 and S=9.

Using the numbers that relate to the letters in 'senipah', you will arrive at

SENIPAH = 9386715.

 

Hence, Happiness is to 517768399 as senipah is to 9386715.

A) 17.12.91 B) 24.12.91
C) 27.12.91 D) 31.12.91
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 24.12.91

Explanation:

1.12.91 is the first Sunday of December 91.
So, 3.12.91 is the first Tuesday of the month.
Clearly, 10.12.91, 17.12.91, 24.12.91 and 31.12.91 are also Tuesdays.
So, 24.12.91 is the fourth Tuesday.

Q:

In an examination a candidate got 30% marks and failed by 30 marks. If the passing marks are 60% of the total marks, then the maximum marks will be: 

A) 450 B) 600
C) 300 D) 100
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 100

Explanation:

Passing marks are 0.6x 

 

so 0.3x + 30 = 0.6x   => x = 100
