Question Explanation:
A crown loses 12 g in water; find gold mass using density–volume relation.
Concept:
This question is based on Archimedes’ principle and density–volume equation.
Solution:
Weight in air = 210 g
Weight in water = 198 g
Loss of weight = 12 g ⇒ Volume of crown = 12 cm3.

Let gold mass = x g.

Copper mass = 210 − x g.

Total volume: x/19.30 + (210 − x)/8.50 = 12

Compute:
(210 − x)/8.50 = 24.71 − 0.12x
x/19.30 = 0.05x

So:
0.05x + 24.71 − 0.12x = 12

37) Question Explanation:

Question is asking about percentage of oxygen in the organic compound.

Concept:
This question is based on combustion of hydrocarbon.

Solution:

= .06 ml ⇒ nC = .06 mol = .06 × 12g = .72g

 = .06 mol ⇒ nH = .12 mol = .12 × 1 g = .12g
mass of O in 0°C = 1.80 – .72 – .12
= .96 gm

% of O in O.C. = = 53.33%

41) Question Explanation: Identify the most stable radical among the options.
Concept: Resonance (Extended Conjugation).
Solution:
• Option (3): Most stable due to extended conjugation. The radical is allylic to a double bond,
which is further conjugated with a Phenyl ring. This allows the unpaired electron to delocalize
over the alkene and into the aromatic ring.
• Comparison: Option (2) is only allylic (less stable). Options (1) and (4) lack resonance
stabilization.
Final Answer: Option (3)

42) Question Explanation: Find strongest base (lowest pKb). Concept: Basicity in water (2º >
1º > 3º).
Solution:
• Aromatic (PhNH2) : Weakest base due to resonance delocalization.
• Aliphatic (Methyl): In aqueous solution, stability depends on hydration and inductive effects.
The experimental order is 2º > 1º > 3º.
• 2º Amine ((CH3)2NH) : Strongest base (optimal balance of +1 effect and H -bonding).
Final Answer: Option (1)
 43) is least basic as its lone pair is involved in resonance.

44) Question Explanation:

Question is asking about most acidic compound.

46) Question Explanation: Calculating the difference in singly occupied molecular orbitals
(SOMO).
Concept: Singly Occupied Molecular Orbitals (S.O.M.O.).
Solution: B2 (10e–) : Configuration is it has 2 SOMOs.

Configuration ends with ; all orbitals are fully filled, so it has

SOMOs.
Difference: Subtracting the number of SOMOs gives the final integer.
SOMO in B2 = 2.
SOMO in O22– = 0.
Difference: 2 - 0 = 2 .
Final Answer: 2

Y : 9, 16, 23, ......, 14128
X ∩ Y : 16, 51, 86, ......
Let m = n(X ∩ Y)
∴ 16 + (m – 1) × 35 ≤ 10086
⇒ m ≤ 288.71
⇒ m = 288
∴ n(X ∪ Y) = n(X) + n(Y) – n(X ∩ Y)
