Answer : 2. "Methanol (CH3OH)"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Methanol (CH3OH) Explanation: Chemical Compounds with stronger intermolecular forces have higher boiling points.   The order of strengths of intermolecular forces is:  London dispersion < dipole-dipole < H-bonding   Methane (CH4) — London dispersion forces Dimethyl ether (CH3OCH3) — dipole-dipole attractions Methanol (CH3OH) — hydrogen bonding Therefore, Methanol - CH3OH with H-Bonding have highest Boiling Point among the given chemical compounds.

Answer : 4. "All of the above"
Explanation :

Answer: D) All of the above Explanation: Land prices in the East were getting too expensive, and the West (Great Plains) offered an opportunity for more people to own land. Although the area suffered from extreme weather and poor soils, many people decided to take the risk and venture to the Great Plains. The government was also committed to supporting those who decided to make the move.   Settlers moved to the Great Plains for several reasons. One reason was the government was offering 160 acres of land for free if the settler agreed to live on the land for five years. This was part of the Homestead Act of 1862.   Some people went to the Great Plains when they heard there were minerals in the region. Gold was one mineral found in the Great Plains region. People hoped to make a lot of money by mining gold.

Q: Is Osmosis Active or Passive? 1604 0

Answer :
Explanation :

Osmosis is the process in which water molecules move from a region of higher water potential to a region of lower potential down a water potential gradient across a partially permeable membrane. It doen't requires any additional energy to do this work.  So, Osmosis is a Passive.   Active and passive transport processes are two ways molecules and other materials move in and out of cells and cross intracellular membranes. 1. Active transport is the movement of molecules or ions against a concentration gradient (from an area of lower to higher concentration), which does not ordinarily occur, so enzymes and energy are required. 2. Passive transport is the movement of molecules or ions from an area of higher to lower concentration. Passive transport occurs because of the entropy of the system, so additional energy isn't required for it to occur. 3. Active transport requires energy to proceed, while passive transport does not require the input of extra energy to occur.

Q: Which path through the carbon cycle is possible? 1604 0

  • 1
    Animal ----> Plant ----> Atmosphere
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 2
    Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 3
    Atmosphere ----> Plant ----> Animal
    Correct
    Wrong
  • 4
    Plant ----> Atmosphere -----> Animal
    Correct
    Wrong

Answer : 2. "Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere"
Explanation :

Answer: B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere Explanation: During daylight hours, plants capture carbon dioxide from the atmosphere and use it to make carbohydrates which is stored as starch in the plant. Animals feed on the plants and extract the carbohydrates through their digestive system. The carbohydrates, namely glucose, are used by the animals for production of ATP through cellular respiration.   Cellar respiration in the animals produces carbon dioxide as a waste product. The carbon dioxide is released into the atmosphere, from where it is again captured by plants and the cycle is repeated.   Hence, option B) Plant ----> Animal ----> Atmosphere is the path possible in carbon cycle.

Answer : 1. "not less than 60 deg"
Explanation :

Answer: A) not less than 60 deg Explanation: Potentially hazardous foods are foods that might contain food poisoning bacteria and are capable of supporting growth of these bacteria or formation of toxins to levels that are unsafe for consumers, if the foods are not stored at correct temperatures. Toxins are poisonous chemicals produced by some types of bacteria. The food can be left at room temperature until it reaches 60 deg C because food-poisoning bacteria will not multiply at 60 deg C or above. However, do not leave food cooling at room temperature unless you are sure that the temperature of the food is still at least above 60 C.

Answer : 1. "8640"
Explanation :

Answer: A) 8640 Explanation: Let the 6 digits of the required 6 digit number be abcdef Then, the number to be odd number the last digit must be odd digit i.e 3, 5, 7 or 9 The first digit cannot be ‘0’ => possible digits = 3, 5, 7, 2, 6, 8 Remaining 4 places can be of 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 ways This can be easily understood by Therefore, required number of ways = 6 x 6 x 5 x 4 x 3 x 4 = 36 x 20 x 12 = 720 x 12 = 8640 ways.
