6 medals (1 silver, 5 bronze).
Q3. pH of neutral water at 25°C is:
Chemistry- 7
- 1
- 14
- 0
Show answer + explanation
Correct: A. 7
Kw = [H⁺][OH⁻] = 10⁻¹⁴ at 25°C → [H⁺] = 10⁻⁷ M → pH=7. At higher T, Kw increases; pH of neutral water drops.
Q4. Second law (Kelvin-Planck) states:
Physics- Entropy decreases
- ΔU = Q - W
- No engine can convert all heat into work in a cycle
- Energy is conserved
Show answer + explanation
Correct: C. No engine can convert all heat into work in a cycle
Equivalent to Clausius statement. Entropy of isolated system never decreases.
Q5. Continuity of f at c means:
Mathematics- lim(x→c) f(x) exists
- f(c) exists
- Both exist and are equal
- No jump
Show answer + explanation
Correct: C. Both exist and are equal
lim f(x) as x→c equals f(c). Differentiable → continuous (reverse not necessarily).
