∵ n-factor of HCl = 1
⇒ Equivalents = 1 × moles of HCl = 10–5

Final Answer: (4)

Ans (A)
(A) 0.1 M CH3COONa ⇒ ∵ Salt of strong base + weak acid
(B) 0.1 M NaCl ⇒ pH = 7
(C) 0.1 M NH4Cl ⇒ pH < 4 (WB. + SA)
(D) 0.1 M CH3COONH4 ⇒ pH ≈ 7 ( ∵ KaCH3COOH ≈ Kb NH4OH)

Explanation Question:
Question is asking about pH of mixture of CH3COOH & NaOH
Concept:
This question is based on Buffer solution
Solution:
CH3COOH = 40 ml 0.1 M
CH3COOH = 40 x 0.1 = 4 mmol
NaOH = 20 x 0.1 = 2 mmol
H3COOH + NaOH → CH3COONa + H2O
4 2 0
4-2 2-2 2
= 2 =Negligible 2
Final solution have WA (CH3COOH) and its salt with S.B. (CH3COONa) so it a acidic buffer
solution

pH =

= 5 + log
=5
{pKa = –log Ka = 5}
Final Answer: 5

MATHEMATICS

51) Explain question: In this question, we have given two quadratic equation have one
common root then ask the value of constant k given in equation.

Concept: This question is based on common roots of quadratic equation.

Solution: Given equation are x2 – x – 12 = 0 ⇒ (x – 4)(x + 3) = 0 ⇒ x = 4, –3
If x = 4 is common root then from other equation have this root
⇒ k(16) + 10(4) + 3 = 0

If x = –3 is common root then from other equation have this root

⇒ k(9) + 10(–3) + 3 = 0

value of k are 3 or

Final answer is option (3).

52)

For curve touching x-axis

D=0
∴ b2 – 4ac = 0
⇒ a2 – 4.1.25 = 0
⇒ a2 – 100 = 0
⇒ a2 = 100
⇒ a = ± 10

53)

at λ = 1
2x2 – 4x + 2 = 0

54) Given, α and β be the roots of the equation

5x2 + 6x – 2 = 0

Similarly

Now
55) Let
⇒ x2(y –1) +x (2y – 34) + 71 – 7y = 0
For real x, discriminant should be

⇒ 4(y – 17)2 – 4 (y – 1) (71 – 7y)

⇒ (y – 17)2 – (–7y2 + 78y – 71)

9(1 + r2 – 2r) = 8 – 8r
9r2 – 10r + 1 = 0
9r2 – 9r – r + 1 = 0
9r (r – 1) – 1(r – 1) = 0
r = 1/9 or r = 1
Not possible

clearly minimum value occurs when

a2 = b2 = c2 = 1 and minimum value

65) Distance between parallel lines is

66) Now, (3.2 – 4.3 – 8)(3(–4) – 4.5 – 8)

= (6 – 12 – 8)(–12 – 20 – 8)
= (–14)(–40) > 0
so, points are same side of line.

67) Required line is

(2x + y – 1) + λ(3x + 2y – 5) = 0
it passes through (0, 0), then
–1 + λ(–5) = 0

⇒λ=–
Hence equation of line is 7x + 3y = 0.

68) a(–1)3 – 3(–1)2 + 4(–1) + 2a = (–1)2 + 4a + a

–a – 3 – 4 + 2a = 1 + 5a
–8 = 4a ⇒ a = –2
