1)

∵ AB = BA = 0
∴ (A + B)n = An + Bn
(A – B)n = An + (–B)n
(3A + 7B)n = 3nAn + 7nBn

∴ det([Link](adjA)) = (64)3 = 218

6) A2 = 4I ⇒ |A|2 = 64 ⇒ |A| = –8
∵ ABT = adjA
∴ A2BT = A adjA ⇒ A2BT = –8I
⇒ B = –2I
ABT = adjA ⇒ –2A = adjA

12)
x – 2017 = t
x + 2017 = z

13)

Given, f''(x) ≥ –2 ∀ x ∈ [–3, 3]

⇒ –12 ≥ –12
∴ f ''(x) = –2 ∀ x ∈ [–3, 3] or apply LMVT in y = f ' (x) in [–3, 3],
we get f ''(x) = – 2
Now, f '(x) = –2x + C
f '(3) = C – 6 = 0 ⇒ C = 6
f '(x) = 6 – 2x ⇒ f(x) = 6x – x2 + C
f(0) = C = –4
Hence, f(x) = 6x – x2 – 4

Now,

∴ in [–3, 3]
g'(x) = –x2 + 6x – 4

g(–3) = 48 which is maximum value in [–3, 3]

14) Put x4 = t ⇒ 4x3dx = dt

Which is orthogonal to (x2 + y2 – 2x – 6y + 6) + λ(x2 + y2 + 2x – 6y + 6) = 0
⇒ λ = –9

16)

(A + B) (A–1 + B–1) = I
⇒ AB–1 + (AB–1)–1 + I = 0
⇒ (AB–1)2 + (AB–1) + I = 0

17) Given the f(x + y) = f(x) + f(y) .... (i)

Putting x = 0 and y = 0 in (i), we get
f(0 + 0) = f(0) + f(0) ⇒ f(0) = 0 .... (ii)

Now f′(x) =

= = = f′(h) = f′(0)

⇒ f(x) = = x f′ (0) + c .... (ii)

Putting x = 0 in (ii), we get
f(0) = 0 + c ⇒ c = 0 [∴ f(0) = 0 from (ii)] .... (ii)
⇒ f(x) = xf′(0) .... (ii)

Thus Ιn = n

⇒ Ιn =
therefore Ι1 + Ι2 + Ι3 + Ι4 + Ι5 = (13 + 23 + 33 + 43 + 53)

⇒ 450 = ⇒ f′ (0) = 4
∴ f(x) = 4x (from equation (iii))

Ι(a) = 2sina – ka2 + –1

putting k = , Ι(a) = 2 sin a – a cos a + . –1

Explanation Question: Question is asking about the P, Q, R and S.

Concept: This question is based on formation of oxime and Beckmann rearrangement.
Solution:
P and Q are geometrical isomers
R and S are metamers

Final Answer:
The correct options are (1,2,3)

42) Question Explanation:

The question asks to identify the correct condition(s) necessary to convert ammonium
acetate into acetamide.

Concept:
This question is based on heating effect of ammonium acetate.

Solution:
Option (1) Heating: Correct. Direct heating of ammonium acetate causes the elimination of
H2O to form acetamide.
Option (2) Heating in the presence of P2O5: Correct. While simple heating is sufficient,
strong dehydrating agents like phosphorus pentoxide (P2O5) absorb water and shift the
dehydration equilibrium strongly to the right, facilitating the conversion.
Option (3) Using Br2 + KOH: Incorrect. Br2 + KOH is used for the Hofmann bromamide
degradation to convert an amide to a primary amine with one less carbon atom.
Option (4) Heating in the presence of CH3COOH: Correct. The presence of acetic acid
shifts the equilibrium to the right, favoring the
formation of ammonium acetate. Heating this mixture will then lead to the dehydration of the
salt to form acetamide
Final Answer:
The correct options are (1), (2) & (4).

Question Explanation:
The question asks for the total number of distinct monobrominated products formed when
CH₂=CH–CH₂–Ph undergoes bromination with NBS, which selectively gives allylic
bromination.

Concept: This question is based on Allylic Bromination, Free Radical substitution Reaction.

Solution:
NBS causes allylic bromination via a free-radical mechanism. In CH2=CH–CH2–Ph (allyl
benzene), the hydrogen at the allylic position (–CH2–Ph) is abstracted first because the
resulting allylic radical is resonance-stabilized.

Final Answer: 4
