Q:

Mg+O2=MgO

Balance the above Chemical equation?

A) 2Mg + O2 ----> 2MgO B) 2Mg + O ----> 2MgO
C) 2Mg + O ----> MgO2 D) 2Mg + O2 ----> MgO2
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) 2Mg + O2 ----> 2MgO

Explanation:

Given Equation is 

Mg + O2  MgO

Balancing the Chemical Equation is nothing but Conservation of Matter. As Matter is Neither created nor Destroyed, it must be conserved.

Here we have 1 Mg and 2 O on the left side and 1 Mg and 1 O on the right side

To balance that, add 1 Mg on the left side so that it becomes 2 Mg and 2 O on the left side

i.e,

2 Mg + O2  2 MgO

Here it has 2 Mg & 2 O on the left side and 2 Mg and 2 O on the right side and the Chemical equation is Balanced.

Q:

Find the odd term from the given series of numbers  ?

125, 127, 130, 135, 142, 153, 165 ?

A) 153 B) 165

Answer & Explanation Answer: B) 165

Explanation:

From the beginning, the next term comes by adding prime numbers in a sequence of 2, 3, 5, 7, 9, 11, 13... to its previous term. But 165 will not be in the series as it must be replaced by 166 since 153+13 = 166.

A) 131 B) 94
C) 83 D) 67
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: D) 67
