Answer: B) 21st September Explanation: "National Volunteer Day" & "International Peace Day" are observed on 21st september every year.

Answer: A) 80% Explanation: Water in 60 gm mixture=60 x 75/100 = 45 gm. and Milk = 15 gm.   After adding 15 gm. of water in mixture, total water = 45 + 15 = 60 gm and weight of a mixture = 60 + 15 = 75 gm.   So % of water = 100 x 60/75 = 80%.

Answer: A) 7.71 sec Explanation: Given L1 = 140 m L2 = 160 m S1 = 60 km/hr S2 = 80 km/hr From the question we get, S1 + S2 = (L1 + L2) / T => (60 + 80) 5/18 m/s = 140 + 160/T => T = 54/7 = 7.71 sec

Answer: C) 12 kmph Explanation: The distance is constant in this case. Let the time taken for travel with a speed of 10 kmph be 't'. Now the speed of 15 kmph is 3/2 times the speed of 10 kmph. Therefore, time taken with the speed of 15 kmph will be 2t/3 (speed is inversely proportional to time) Extra time taken = t - 2t/3 = t/3 => 1pm - 11am = 2hrs => t/3 = 2h => t = 6 hrs. Now, Distance = speed x time = 10 x 6 = 60 kms Time he takes to reach at noon = 6 - 1 = 5 hrs Now, Speed = 60/5 = 12 kmph.

Answer: B) 15 September Explanation:

Answer: B) CF4 Explanation: You have to consider three things. 1. First, are the bonds polar? Look at differences in electronegativity and if  it is >0.5, bonds are polar.   2. Second, does the molecule have unshared electron pairs? If so, they generally lead to a polar molecule.   3. Third, is the molecule symmetric? If so, then although the bonds may be polar, the symmetry cancels out the individual bond polarity and the molecule is non polar. CF4 follows all the rules above and has a symmetric distribution of charge, making it nonpolar. The others all have asymmetric charge distributions.   Hence, CF4 represents a Non-polar molecule.
