Question Discussion & Solution

Concept:

• The laws dealing with ideal gases naturally called ideal gas laws, and the laws determined in the seventeenth century by Boyle's observational work and in the eighteenth century by Charles.
• The Boyles Law states that the gas pressure is inversely proportional to the gas volume for a given mass of gas stored at a constant temperature.
• Charles Law states that the gas volume is directly proportional to the gas temperature for a given fixed mass of gas stored at a constant pressure. 
• An ideal gas is a gas that follows the equation:

PV = nRT at all temperatures and pressure, where P = Pressure of the ideal gas. V = Volume of the ideal gas n = Amount of ideal gas measured in terms of moles 

R = Universal gas constant T = Temperature

Mole Concept -

•  The quantity one mole of a substance signifies 6.022 × 1023 number of particles of that substance which may be atoms, molecules, or ions.
• The quantity is a universal constant like Dozen, Gross, etc., and is known as Avogadro number, denoted by NA. after the scientist Amedeo Avogadro.
• Examples- In one mole of H2, there are 6.022 × 1023 molecules of hydrogen, and the number of atoms is 2 × 6.022 × 1023, as one molecule of hydrogen contains two-atom each.
• The mass of one mole of a substance is called its Molar Mass (M) or Atomic mass expressed in grams.
• The volume occupied by a mole of gas is 22.4 L at NTP, called its Molar Volume.
• The no. of moles (n) is calculated as =

The number of particles / Avogadro’s number.

To summarise, we can say, 

Calculation:

• The molar mass of 1 mole of H₂SO₄ is =

2 × 1 + 32 + 4 × 16 = 98g

• The molar mass of 1 mole of Silver, Ag is its molecular mass 108g.
• The molar mass of CO₂ is = 12 + 2× 16 = 44g.
• 44g of CO₂ means one mole.
• 1 mole of Oxygen weighs 16 + 16 = 32g.
• Hence, the highest mass is of 1 mole of Ag.

Logic:

Train, Bus, and Boat are all vehicles,

Whereas a wheel is not a vehicle but a part of it.

Hence, "Wheel" is the odd word.

The correct answer is Mehrangarh Fort.

Key Points

• Mehrangarh Fort was built on Chidiyatunk Hill.
  • It was built by Rao Jodha in 1459 AD.
  • It is also known as Gad Chintamadi / Suryagarh / Kagmukhi.
  • Its shape looks like a peacock.
  • Jaipol, Lohapol, Fatehpol are the main entry gates in Fort.
  • Dhanna and Bheeva 10 Pillars Chhatri Is also situated in Fort.
  • Rathod's Family Goddess (Kuldevi) Nagnechi Mata Temple is also situated in it.
  • Rudyard Kipling said that it was built by Fairies and Angels.
  • Chamunda Mata Temple, Suri Mosque, Murali Manohar and Anand Dhan Ji Temple are also some viewable places in Fort.

The correct answer is Only I.

Key Points

• In asexual reproduction, only one parent is involved and sex cells are not involved. 
• It is observed in both multicellular and unicellular organisms.
• Types of asexual reproduction are:
  • Binary Fission
  • Budding
  • Fragmentation
  • Vegetative Propagation
  • Sporogenesis
• Spore formation comes under sporogenesis. Hence, statement 1 is correct.
• Spore formation is a kind of reproduction process in plants by produces tiny spores and propagates through them.
• Spore Formation is a method of asexual reproduction. 
• Spore formation can be seen in the bread mould / Rhizopus.
• The airborne spores land on bread under favourable conditions and they germinate and produce new bread mould plants.
• Each spore is covered with a protective coat to withstand unfavourable conditions.
• Plants like ferns, mucor, and mosses are also reproduced through spore formation
• Spores are present in a sac called sporangia.
• Fragmentation is a type of asexual reproduction. Hence, statement 2 is incorrect.

Additional Information

• Pollination is a method of Sexual Reproduction.
• Self-pollination:
  • The transfer of pollen grains from another to the stigma of the same flower is called self-pollination.
• ​Cross-pollination:
  • The transfer of pollen grains from the anther of one flower to the stigma of another flower is called cross-pollination.
• Vegetative propagation:
  • It is a form of asexual reproduction of a plant wherein a new plant grows from a fragment of the parent plant.

• The blue litmus paper will turn red when it comes into contact with an acidic solution.
• When a litmus paper is put in a solution, depending on what the solution is, the indicator will react with the solution and will change its colour.
• On the other hand, red litmus paper reacts to alkaline substances by turning blue.
• Note: Acid will turn red litmus paper to red only.No change.
