Answer : 4. "All the above"
Explanation :

Answer: D) All the above Explanation:    1) SO2                  2) CH2Cl2                3) PCl3 How to check the given molecules are polar or non polar : If the electronegativity of the two bonded atoms are different then the bond is polar. Although, some molecules contain polar bonds, the molecule may be non-polar. If the polarity of all the bonds present in the molecule are cancel each other then molecule is non-polar.   In the given options, SO2  is polar because the dipole moments on the O do not cancel. PCl3  is polar because the P-Cl bonds do not cancel out. CH2Cl2  polar because the C-Cl bonds do not cancel.   Hence, in brief, Polar molecules are molecules with net dipole due to the presence of partial positive and partial negative charge. For example, water is a polar molecule that has partial positive and partial negative charge on it. CO2 is a non polar compound.   Therefore, all the given options SO2, CH2Cl2 and PCl3 are Polar molecules.

Answer : 1. "TRUE"
Explanation :

Answer: A) TRUE Explanation: Microwaves are high-frequency signals in the 300 MHz to 300 GHz range. This is in contrast to radio signals, which are typically broadcast in all directions. Radio signals operate in the 3 Hz to 300 MHz range. Microwave signals are used for both satellite and ground-based communications.

Answer : 3. "18.5"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 18.5 Explanation: The given series pattern follows   17       9       10       18.5       35       90   × 0.5 + 0.5,   × 1 + 1,   × 1.5 + 1.5,   × 2 + 2,   × 2.5 + 2.5   So here    17x0.5 + 0.5 = 9   9x1 + 1 = 10   10x1.5 + 1.5 = 16.5   16.5x2 + 2 = 35   35x2.5 + 2.5 = 90   Here the odd man in the given series is 18.5

Answer : 3. "32 lit"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 32 lit Explanation: Given mixture = 48 lit Milk in it = 48 x 5/8 = 30 lit => Water in it = 48 - 30 = 18 lit Let 'L' lit of water is added to make the ratio as 3:5 => 30/(18+L) = 3/5 => 150 = 54 + 3L => L = 32 lit.

Answer : 3. "80"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 80 Explanation: Let marks obtained by S = M R's marks = 0.80M Q's marks = 1.25 (0.80M) P's marks = (0.90) (1.25) (0.80M) = 0.9M But 0.9M = 360 M = ? M = 400 Hence % of marks obtained by S = 400/500 x 100 = 80%.
