Question Explanation:
Time period T of an underwater explosion bubble scales as Pᵃ dᵇ Eᶜ; find exponents a, b, c by
dimensional analysis.

Concept:
This question is based on dimensional analysis (equating M, L, T exponents).

Solution:
Dimensions: [P] = M L⁻¹ T⁻², [d] = M L⁻³, [E] = M L² T⁻², [T] = T.

Require: T = Pᵃ dᵇ Eᶜ → M{a+b+c} L{–a-3b+2c} T{–2a – 2c} = T1.

Equate exponents:

M: a + b + c = 0

L: −a − 3b + 2c = 0

T: −2a − 2c = 1 ⇒ a + c = −1/2

From a + c = −1/2 and a + b + c = 0 ⇒ b = 1/2.

Use b = 1/2 in L-equation:

−a − 3(1/2) + 2c = 0 ⇒ −a − 3/2 + 2c = 0.

With c = −1/2 − a, substitute:

−a − 3/2 + 2(−1/2 − a) = 0 ⇒ −a − 3/2 −1 −2a = 0

⇒ −3a − 5/2 = 0 ⇒ a = −5/6.

Then c = −1/2 − a = −1/2 + 5/6 = 1/3.

So (a, b, c) = (−5/6, 1/2, 1/3).

Final Answer: The correct option is (3).

Explain the question: Compare quantum numbers of the last electron in Phosphorus and
Sulphur.

Concept: Atomic electronic configuration and quantum numbers.

Solution:
Phosphorus (Z = 15) has a ground-state configuration of [Ne]3s23p3. Its last electron is in the
3p subshell, characterized by n = 3 and l = 1.
Sulphur (Z = 16) has a configuration of [Ne]3s23p4. Its last (differentiating) electron also
enters the 3p subshell.
Therefore, it must share the same principal quantum number (n = 3) and azimuthal quantum
number (l = 1). While it will occupy one of the 3p orbitals (m = –1, 0 or +1) and have a specific
spin, the specific m and s values are not guaranteed to be identical to those of the "last"
electron assigned to Phosphorus in a specific setup.
Only the shell (n) and subshell (l) are necessarily the same.

24) Question Explanation: Identify the properties and position of element Ununseptium
(Uus).
Concept: IUPAC Nomenclature and Periodic Table Position
Solution:
The IUPAC name 'Uus' stands for Ununseptium, where 'un' = 1, 'un' = 1, and 'sept' = 7, giving
it the atomic number Z = 117.
Elements with Z > 92 are transuranium elements. Based on its electronic configuration, it
belongs to the p-block (Group 17) and the
7th period. Therefore, calling it an 'f' block element is incorrect as f-block element lie between
atomic no. 90-103 in 7th period
• IUPAC Name: Un (1) + un (1) + sept (7) + ium = Ununseptium.
• Atomic Number (Z): 117.
• Configuration: [Rn]5f146d107s27p5.
• Since the last electron enters the 7p orbital, it is a p-block element, not an f-block element.

Question Explanation: The problem requires calculating the total moles of KCl produced
across three sequential reactions by accounting for stoichiometric ratios, initial reagent
amounts, and specific percentage yields at each step.
Concept: Sequential Reaction Stoichiometry with Yield: In a series of reactions, the actual
amount of product from one step becomes the maximum possible reactant for the next, with
the final total being the sum of the product generated at every stage.
Solution:

Final Answer : 4

34) Question Explanation: Explain the question: Determine the number of valid sets of
quantum numbers.

Concept: This question is based on quantum numbers.

Solution:
 Solution:
We evaluate each set against the rules:

A. (a) : Valid. (ℓ = 2 < 3, |m| ≤ 2).

B. (b) : Invalid. ℓ must be less than n(ℓ = 2 not allowed for n = 2).

C. (c) : Valid. (ℓ = 3 < 4, |m| ≤ 3).

D. (d) : Invalid. ℓ must be less than n (ℓ = 3 not allowed for n = 3).

E. (e) : Valid. (ℓ = 0 < 1, m = 0).

F. (f) : Valid. (ℓ = 0 < 1, m = 0).

G. (g) : Valid. (ℓ = 0 < 2, m = 0).

H. (h) : Valid. (ℓ = 1 < 2, |m| ≤ 1).

Valid sets: (a), (c), (e), (f), (g), (h).

Total count: 6.

(m + 5)2 – 4(1)(5m + 1) = 0
m2 + 25 + 10m – 20m – 4 = 0
m2 – 10m + 21 = 0
m1 + m2 = 10

41) n(A' ∩ B') = n(A ∪ B)'

= n(U) – n(A ∪ B)
= 700 – n(A ∪ B)
Now n(A ∪ B) = n(A) + n(B) – n(A ∩ B)
= 200 + 300 – 100 = 400

42) number of elements of in is but each element is used 10

times, So

Similarly number of each elements in

is 3n but each element is repeated 9 times, So

2rx + (p + q)r = x2 + (p + q)x + pq

x2 + (p + q – 2r)x + pq – pr – qr = 0
Let roots of equation be α and – α so
sum of roots α + (–α) = –(p + q – 2r)
0 = p + q – 2r
p + q = 2r ... (1)
Product of roots = pq – pr – qr
= pq – r(p + q)

By (1)

Product of roots

Case-1 : x + 2 = 0 ∴ x = –2
Case-2 : x2 – x – 1 = 1
x2 – x – 2 = 0
(x – 2)(x + 1) = 0
x = 2, x = –1
Case-2 : x2 – x – 1 = –1 and x + 2 must be even
x2 – x = 0
x = 0, x = 1
For x = 0, x + 2 is even, for x = 1, x + 2 is odd.
∴ x=0
∴ x = –2, 0, –1, 2

B – C ≡ {7,13,19,...97, ....}
Now, n2 – n ≤ 100 × 100
⇒ n(n – 1) ≤ 100 × 100
⇒ A = {1,2,...., 100}.
So, {7,13,19,...,97}

Hence, sum =

(p + q) (p – q) = r
since r is factorized into two integers, the smaller them must be 1. i.e. p – q = 1, which is
possible only for
(p – q) (p + q) = r
p–q=1
p = 3 and q = 2
∴ r=5
∴ only one ordered pair.
