Answer : 2. "87.48 lit"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 87.48 lit Explanation: For these type of problems, Quantity of Diesel remained = q1-pqn      Here p = 12 , q = 120    => 1201-121203 = 120 x 0.9 x 0.9 x 0.9 = 87.48 lit.

Answer : 1. "Hydrophobic"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Hydrophobic Explanation: Lipids are soluble in solvents of low polarity, which simply means that lipids are soluble in nonpolar solvents. This solubility property is a result of the large nonpolar regions that are indicative of the lipid molecule.

Answer : 1. "Rs. 2000"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Rs. 2000 Explanation: Given, Compound rate, R = 10% per annumTime = 2 yearsC.I = Rs. 420Let P be the required principal.A = (P+C.I)Amount, A = P1 + r100n (P+C.I) = P1 + 101002 (P+420) = P[11/10][11/10] P-1.21P = -420 0.21P = 420 Hence, P = 420/0.21 = Rs. 2000

Answer : 1. "Radio waves"
Explanation :

Answer: A) Radio waves Explanation: Radio waves have much longer wavelengths and lower frequencies than do visible light waves. In contrast, X-rays have much shorter wavelengths and higher frequencies.  Ultraviolet Light (UV). part of the electromagnetic spectrum that consists of waves with frequencies higher than those of visible light and lower than those of x-rays.

Answer : 2. "3' > 2' > 1'> NH3"
Explanation :

Answer: B) 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3 Explanation: The order of basicity in ammonia is different in gaseous phases vs. aqueous phases due to hydrogen bonding.   So in gaseous phases it's the well known: 3' > 2' > 1'> NH3. Just so we're on the same page, this is due to the inductive effect of electron donating alkyl groups--they destabilize the lone pair on nitrogen atom, making nitrogen more basic.   But in aqueous phase, the order is slightly different: 2'> 1'> 3' > NH3.

Answer : 4. "All the above"
Explanation :

Answer: D) All the above Explanation: Intermolecular forces : The forces of attraction present in between the molecules or atoms or compounds is termed as intermolecular forces. The molecule HCl is composed of hydrogen and chlorine atom. There is high difference in electronegativities therefore, it is polar in nature. The H end of HCl is permanently slightly positive charge. The Cl end of HCl has a permanent slight negative charge. the "H" in one molecule is attracted to the "Cl" in a neighbor. The intermolecular force is weak compared to a covalent bond. But this dipole-dipole interaction is one of the stronger intermolecular attractions. It also has hydrogen bonding and dispersion forces.  Dispersion forces are the weakest forces which are present in between all molecules or atoms.Hydrogen bonds are present in molecules having at least one H-A bond where A is the strong electronegative atom (mainly F, Cl and N).

Answer : 4. "All the above"
Explanation :

Answer: D) All the above Explanation: The Multiples of 18 are 18, 36, 54, 72, 90, 108, 126, ....   Multiples of 18 are nothing but numbers which are divisible by 18 leaving remainder 0.   An infinite number of multiples of 18 can be achieved by adding 18 to each subsequent multiple.
