Answer :
Explanation :

B2+ is a Paramagnetic.  The filled orbitals are σ(1s)22, σ∗(1s)22, σ(2s)22, σ∗(2s)22. The half-filled orbitals are π(2pxx) and π(2pyy). Since it posses 2 unpaired electrons, it is Paramagnetic in nature.

Answer : 4. "2834"
Explanation :

Answer: D) 2834 Explanation: Let the total number of votes polled in the election be 100k.Number of valid votes = 100k - 20% (100k) = 80kLet the number of votes polled in favour of K and L be a and b respectively.a - b = 15% (100k) => a = b + 15k=> a + b = b + 15k + bNow, 2b + 15k = 80k and hence b = 32.5kIt is given that 100k = 872032.5k = 32.5k/100k x 8720 = 2834 The number of valid votes polled in favour of L is 2834.

Answer : 3. "450"
Explanation :

Answer: C) 450 Explanation: Given Series is 5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _? 5, 14, 42, 107, 233, _? Differences is 9, 28, 65, 126 9 = 2^3 + 1 28 = 3^3 + 1 65 = 4^3 + 1 126 = 5^3 + 1 Now, next difference must be 6^3 + 1 = 217 Hence, next number in the given series = 233 + 217 = 450.
