SECTION II 10. (D) 11. (D) The velocity of the charged particles due to the application of a uniform magnetic field at an angle of 85 to the field lines can be resolved into two components which are unequal in magnitude and are parallel and perpendicular to the line of force. The resultant path is hence not a circle. 12. (D) The resistance is greater when the lamp is on because the filament is at a higher temperature. 13. (A) Electric intensity at a given point is given by E = dV of V is constant in dx space, the potential gradient in any direction is zero and hence the intensity is zero. Thus potential can exist where there is no electric field. SECTION III 14. (A) Mass of copper in air = 264 gm Mass of copper in water = 221 gm Apparent loss of mass = 264 221 = 43 gm volume of copper piece with cavity = 43 c.c. 15.

17. (A) If V is the speed of hammer when it strikes the nail is V = 2gh. If V is the speed of the combination after impact, then MV = (M + m) V, where m is the mass of nail. If FG is the average resistance (resistive force) offered by ground, the net upward force F on the hammer-nail combination is F = FG (M + m) g. 1 (M + m) V2 = F M + m g d G 2

23. (D) Molecular weight of (CHOO)2 Fe = 170 Iron present in 100 mg = 56 100 = 32.9 mg 170
This is present in 400 mg capsule. Hence percentage of iron in the capsule = 32.9 100 400 = 8.2% 8%
24. (D) Since volume is doubled after mixing the two gases, pressure of each gas becomes half of its original value. Hence the total pressure of the mixture, 100 400 + PT = = 250 mm. 2 2 25. (D) Schottky defect represents missing of equal number of cations and anions in an ionic crystal. This decreases the density. Frenkel defect represents the migration of an ion preferably cation from the lattice point to the interstitial site. This increases the dielectric constant of the ionic crystals. Generally stoichiometric defects make the crystal good electrical conductors. 26. (B) x2 = n

28. (C) In the reaction between alcohol and HBr, the carbocation is formed as intermediate. The reactivity of alcohol with HBr is therefore directly proportional to stability of carbocations. So the reactivity order is I > III > II. 29. (A) Hydration takes place. The addition is via syn mechanism. Anti-Markownikoff s product is formed. Hence the product is
30. (C) Strength of acid depends on strength of the bond between hydrogen atom and the other atom to which it is attached. Lesser the bond strength greater is the acidity. Thus H2CO3 < H3PO4 < HCl < HI. 31. (D) Formation of phosphine (PH3) and NaH2PO2 from white phosphorus involves both oxidation and reduction. Hence it is an example of disproportionation.

Since para position with respect to phenolic group is free, the second OH goes to para position with respect to the first OH group.
37. (C)
Since the temperature is low and KOH solution is dilute, OCH3 groups are not hydrolysed. OH group goes to p-position with respect to phenolic group.
38. (D) In -naphthol structure, para position is not free. Hence the OH group goes to ortho position with respect to phenolic OH group. 39. (D) In H3PO4 and HPO3, phosphorus is in + 5 state in both cases. 40. (B) H3PO3 and H3PO2 are reducing agents. But H3PO4 is not a reducing agent.
