 19. What are the difference between Checked and Unchecked
exceptions in Java?

Option 1: Unchecked exceptions produce less number of compiler errors than the code with
Checked exceptions.
Option 2: Most of the unchecked exceptions have RuntimeException as the superclass. Checked
exceptions have different classes as superclasses.
Option 3: Unchecked exceptions cause more number of runtime exceptions at the time of
execution. As the Checked exceptions are handled well with TRY CATCH blocks, you will get less
number of exceptions or errors at the time of execution.
Option 4: All the above

Correct Answer: All the above

Option 1: A try statement must have at least one corresponding catch block.
Option 2: Multiple catch statements can catch the same class of exception more than once.
Option 3: Except in case of VM shutdown, if a try block starts to execute, a corresponding finally
block will always start to execute.
Option 4: An Error that might be thrown in a method must be declared as thrown by that method, or
be handled within that method.

Correct Answer: Except in case of VM shutdown, if a try block starts to execute, a

corresponding finally block will always start to execute.
