Concept - Each fluorine atom has 7 valence electrons and the electron configuration of
fluorine in the valence shell is 2s2 2p5.
In the F2 molecule, the two fluorine atoms form a bond by the overlap of their p orbitals.

Concept: Effect of ionic charge and ionic size.
Solution:
• Lattice energy increases with higher ionic charge and smaller ionic size.
• For sodium halides: NaBr < NaCl because Br⁻ is larger than Cl⁻.
• Oxides have 2+ and 2− ions, so lattice energy is much higher than NaCl/NaBr.
• Between oxides: CaO > BaO because Ca²⁺ is smaller than Ba²⁺.
• Hence overall increasing order is:

⇒ θ = nπ + (–1)n , n ∈ Z

52)

cospθ + cosqθ = 0

OR

⇒ ,n∈Z
⇒ Value of θ are in A.P.

with common difference

53) cos2θ = sinθ tanθ

⇒ 6cos3θ = 1 – cos2θ
⇒ 6cos3θ + cos2θ – 1 = 0
⇒ (2 cosθ – 1) (3 cos2θ + 2cosθ + 1) = 0

⇒ cosθ =

⇒ θ = 2nπ ± , n∈Z
(Other factor gives imaginary roots)

54) Taking log both side on base ‘10’

= (5 + logx) log10
Let logx = t

= (5+t)
(t+5) (t–3) = 0
t = –5 t=3
logx = –5 logx = 3
x = 10–5 x = 103

55)

4 – x = 18x2
18 x2 + x – 4 = 0
18 x2 + 9x – 8x – 4 = 0
9x(2x + 1) – 4 (2x + 1) = 0

⇒ and

Now
(x = 1/2x)

56) = 30

t+ = 30
t2 – 30t + 81 = 0
(t – 27) (t – 3) = 0
∴ t = 27

and

a=4

58) Use a3 + b3 + 3ab(a+b) = (a+b)3

x = 1 + 31/3 + 91/3 ⇒ x –1 = 31/3 + 91/3
Take cube in both side
(x – 1)3 = (31/3 + 91/3)3 ⇒ x3 – 1 – 3x(x –1) = 3 + 9 + 3.31/3 . 91/3(31/3 + 91/3)
∵ 31/3 . 91/3 = 271/3 = 3 and 31/3 + 91/3 = x –1
⇒ x3 – 3x2 – 6x = 4

59)

∴ ⇒ a = 4 4 is root of 2x2 – ax + 4 = 0 ∴ a = 9

∴ D≥0
⇒
∴

62) α2 – 2α + 3 = 0 & β2 – 2β+ 3 = 0

α – 2α + 3α – 2 = α(α2 – 2α + 3) – 2 = –2
3 2

(β3 – 2β2 + 3β – 1)4 = (β(β2 – 2β + 3) – 1)4 = 1

∴ The quadratic equation whose roots are –2 and 1 is x2 – (–2 + 1)x + (–2) = 0
⇒ x2 + x – 2 = 0

63) ax2 + bx + c = 0 → tan , tan

S.O.R. tan + tan = ....(1)

P.O.R. tan . tan = ....(2)

Now P + Q + R = π

⇒ {∠R = }

⇒

64) x3 – x – 1 = 0
α+β+γ=0
∴ β+γ=–α
∴ New roots

Put =t⇒α= in given equation.

65)
Let the first three terms of the G.P. be g1 = a, g2 = ar, and g3 = ar2. Since it is a decreasing G.P.,
we expect 0 < r < 1.

Divide this by the square of the first equation :

Cross-multiply to solve for

a = 3 and r = or 3 (rejected)

G.P. is 9, 3, 1, , ...... ⇒ C is not correct.

Final Answer: The correct option is (3).

66)

67) (2x)2 – (3y)2 = 55

(2x–3y) (2x + 3y) = 55
2x–3y = 5 or 2x–3y = 1
2x–3y = 11 2x + 3y = 55
2x = 8 2x = 28
x = 3, y = 1 No integer value of x

68) (2x)3 + (–3y)3 + (1)3 = 3(2x)(–3y)(1)

⇒ 2x – 3y + 1 = 0

71) 2tan2x – 5sec x = 1

2 (sec2x – 1) – 5secx = 1
2sec2x – 5sec – 3 = 1

∴ cosx =

72)
⇒ cosx + cos2x + cos3x + cos4x + cos5x = 5
Which is possible only when cosx = cos2x
cos3x = cos4x = cos5x = 1 and is satisfied by x = 0 and x = 2π

73) Let x2 + x = t
⇒ (t–2) (t–3) –12 = 0
⇒ t2 –5t –6 = 0
⇒ (t–6) (t+1) = 0
⇒ t = 6 OR t = –1
⇒ x2+x = 6
x2 + x-6 = 0
Roots are real
x2 + x + 1 = 0
Roots are imaginary
Sum roots of = -1

74)

α + β = 1, αβ = 2
α2 + β2 = –3
