Answer: A) the existence of unpaired electrons in the valence shell Explanation: When atoms react they do so in order to reach the lowest energy, which is the most stable. The electrons orbitals will overlap in the way that reduces the energy the most. Orbitals of similar energy will produce the greatest stabilisation.The answer you gave isn't the whole story, it depends what species is reacting with what. The effective nuclear charge on the atom will affect the energy of the valance electrons.   Hence, the reactivity of an atom arises from the existence of unpaired electrons in the valence shell.

Answer: B) 16 Explanation: W = 10th from the left   R = 4th from the right = (30 - 4 + 1= ) 27th from left    No of boys between R and W = (27 - 10) - 1 = 16

Answer: A) 5% Explanation: Given compound interest for 3 years = Rs. 1513.2   and simple interest for 5 years = Rs. 2400   Now, we know that  C.I = P1+R100n - 1   => 1513.2 = P1+R1003 - 1 ...........(A)   And S.I = PTR/100   => 2400 = P5R/100 ..................(B)   By solving (A) & (B), we get   R = 5%.

Answer: D) Wednesday Explanation: Here from 4th December 1999 to 3rd January 2000,there is a difference of 30 days.Number of odd days = 30/7 = 2 odd days Then no. of odd days = 2 => tuesday and wednesday(from monday). Hence on 3rd january it is wednesday.
