Explanation: Find Equivalent weight

Concept: Equivalent weight and n factor

Solution:
In MnO4–, oxidation state of Mn = +7.
In Mn2+, oxidation state of Mn = +2.
Change in oxidation state per Mn atom = 7 – 2 = 5.
n-factor of MnO4– = 5.
Equivalent weight of MnO4– = M1/5 (Option 1 is correct).
In Br2, oxidation state of Br = 0.
In BrO3–, oxidation state of Br = +5.
Change in oxidation state per Br atom = 5 – 0 = 5.
Since each Br2 molecule has 2 bromine atoms, total electrons lost per molecule = 2 × 5 = 10.
n-factor of Br2 = 10.
Equivalent weight of Br2 = M2/10 (Option 2 is correct).
n-factor ratio of MnO4–: Br2 = 5 : 10 = 1 : 2 (Option 3 is incorrect).

Final Answer:
The correct options are (1) and (2).

Question Explanation: Calculating composition of a mixture using stoichiometry and mass

balance.
Concept: Stoichiometry of Chemical Reactions.
Solution: The ore contains Cu2S, CuS, and inert impurities. Roasting converts all copper in
these sulfides into pure copper metal. By setting up mass equations for the total ore and the
total copper produced, we can solve for the individual masses of the copper sulfides.
Mass of Cu2S & CuS = 100 – 4.5 = 95.5 g
Let mass of Cu2S is x g.

Cu2S + O2 2Cu + SO2

CuS + O2 Cu + SO2
Mass of Cu from Cu2S + Mass of Cu from CuS = 71.8

× 63.5 × 2 + 63.5 = 71.8

41) Explain Question : Count reflexive and symmetric relations.

Concept: Relation combinatorics.
Solution :
1. Reflexive Relations
For a relation to be reflexive, every element must relate to itself.
In our 5 × 5 matrix, the diagonal elements (a, a) are mandatory (they have only 1 choice: to be
included).
The remaining n2 – n elements (25 – 5 = 20) can either be in the relation or not ( 2 choices
each).
So, Formula is: .
2. Reflexive and Symmetric Relations
• Reflexive: Diagonal elements are fixed (included).
• Symmetric: If (a, b) is included, (b, a) must also be included.
This means we only have a choice for the elements above the diagonal.
The elements below the diagonal are automatically determined by the ones above.

• Number of elements above the diagonal = .

So, Formula is: .
3. Reflexive but NOT Symmetric Relations
To find relations that are reflexive but not symmetric,
we subtract the "Symmetric and Reflexive" count from the "Total Reflexive" count.
= 220 – 210 = 210(210–1).

replace y → – y :
ƒ(x – y) – ƒ(x + y) = ƒ(x).ƒ(–y)
∴ ƒ(x). ƒ(y) = –ƒ(x).ƒ(–y)
⇒ ƒ(x) (ƒ(y) + ƒ(–y)) = 0
⇒ ƒ(x) = 0 or ƒ(y) = –ƒ(–y) (ƒ is odd)
∴ either ƒ(x) = 0 or ƒ(x) is simultaneously odd and even.
∴ ƒ(x) = 0 only.
