Q:

Is C2 Paramagnetic or Diamagnetic?

A) Paramagnetic B) Diamagnetic
C) Ferromagnetic D) Can't be determined
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: B) Diamagnetic

Explanation:

Paramagnetic Molecules ::

 

If the Electronic configuration of a molecule has any unpaired electrons, then that molecule is said to be Paramagnetic.

 

Diamagnetic Molecules ::

 

If the Electronic configuration of a molecule has only paired or spin paired electrons, then that molecule is said to be Diamagnetic.

Here the molecule C2 has all paired electrons in its electronic configuration. So C2 is Diamagnetic.

 

Whereas, B2 molecule has unpaired electrons. So B2 is Paramegnetic.

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:

ATP stands for -

A) Adenosine triphosphate B) Alanine triphosphate
C) Adrenalin triphosphate D) Asparagine triphosphate
 
Answer & Explanation Answer: A) Adenosine triphosphate

Explanation:

Adenosine triphosphate (ATP) is a nucleotide which is also called as nucleoside triphosphate is a small molecule used in cells as a coenzyme. It is often referred to as the "molecular unit of currency" of intracellular energy transfer. ATP transports chemical energy within cells for metabolism. Most of the cellular functions need energy in order to be carried out such as synthesis of proteins, synthesis of membranes, movement of the cell, cellular division, transport of various solutes etc. The ATP is the molecule that carries energy to the place where the energy is needed. When ATP breaks into ADP (adenosine diphosphate) and Pi (phosphate), the breakdown of the last covalent link of phosphate liberates energy that is used in reactions where it is needed.
