Answer: C) Fluorine Explanation: Electronegativity refers to the ability of an atom to attract shared electrons in a covalent bond. The higher the value of the electronegativity, the more strongly that element attracts the shared electrons. Electronegativity increases from bottom to top in groups, and increases from left to right across periods. Thus, fluorine is the most electronegative element and lithium is the least.

Answer: B) Earth Explanation: Earth is not a Jovian Planet as it is a Terrestrial planet. A planet designated as Jovian is hence a gas giant, composed primarily of hydrogen and helium gas with varying degrees of heavier elements.   Within the Solar System, four Jovian planets exist – Jupiter, Saturn, Uranus, and Neptune. Though these planets vary in terms of size, mass, and composition, they all share certain characteristics that cause them to differ greatly from the terrestrial planets located in the inner Solar System.

Answer: B) Rs. 10,500 Explanation: The ratio of distribution should be: 21 x 15 : 15 x 35 : 35 x 21= 315 : 525 : 735 = 3 : 5 : 7The smallest share will be of worth: 3/15 x 52,500 = Rs. 10,500

Answer: A) Nucleotides Explanation: DNA is a very long chain polymer made up of thousands of repeating units called nucleotides.   Nucleotide Unit is composed of a phosphate group, a pentose sugar, and a nitrogenous base.   The sides of the DNA ladder are made up of alternating deoxyribose sugar -- phosphate group units.

Answer: B) Rs. 4826 Explanation: We know the formula for calculating The compound interest C = P1 + r100n - 1 where P = amount, r = rate of interest, n = time Here P = 5000, r1 = 10, r2 = 20 Then C = 65001 + 101002 x 1 + 201002 - 1= 6500 x 18562500= 65 x 185625 C = Rs. 4826.

Answer: D) Orographic rainfall Explanation: Orographic precipitation or Rain produced when moist air is lifted as it moves over a mountain range. As the air rises and cools, orographic clouds form and serve as the source of the precipitation, most of which falls upwind of the mountain ridge.   Some also falls a short distance downwind of the ridge and is sometimes called spillover. On the lee side of the mountain range, rainfall is usually low, and the area is said to be in a Rain Shadow.

Answer: D) -19 Explanation: HCF of 210 and 55 is 5 Now, 210x5 + 55P = 5 => 1050 + 55P = 5 => 55P = -1045 => P = -1045/55 => P = -19.

Answer: B) 2 Explanation: A number is divisible by 9 only if the sum of the digits of the number is divisible by 9. Here 86236 = 8 + 6 + 2 + 3 + 6 = 25 We must add 2 to 25 to become 27 which is divisible by 9.
