Question Discussion & Solution

The correct answer is option 2 i.e C₄H_10.

Concept:

Hydrocarbons

• Compounds made of carbon and hydrogen atoms only are called hydrocarbons.
• Saturated hydrocarbons:
  • The hydrocarbons in which carbon atoms are singly bonded are called saturated hydrocarbons.
  • Saturated hydrocarbons are also called alkanes or paraffin.
    • The general formula of alkane– CnH2n+2.
• Unsaturated hydrocarbons:
  • The hydrocarbons in which carbon atoms are either doubly or triply bonded are called unsaturated hydrocarbons.
  • Doubly bonded (carbon atoms) hydrocarbons are called alkenes.
  • The general formula of alkene is CnH2n.

• The formula for alkane should be mentioned C_nH_2n+2

Explanation:

The correct answer is Application Language.

• Application Language is the other name of functional language.

Key Points

• Functional languages have a mathematical style.
• A functional program is constructed by applying functions to arguments.
• Functional languages, such as LISP, ML, and Haskell, are used as research tools in language development, automated mathematical theorem provers, and in commercial projects.
• Other high-level languages are called functional languages.
• The best-known functional language of this type is LISP (List Processing).

Additional Information

• Machine code, also known as machine language, is the elemental language of computers.
  • It is read by the computer's central processing unit (CPU), is composed of digital binary numbers and looks like a very long sequence of zeros and ones.
  • Each CPU has its own specific machine language.
  • The processor reads and handles instructions, which tell the CPU to perform a simple task. Instructions are comprised of a certain number of bits.
• A high-level language is a programming language designed to simplify computer programming.
  • It is "high-level" since it is several steps removed from the actual code run on a computer's processor. 
  • High-level source code contains easy-to-read syntax that is later converted into a low-level language, which can be recognized and run by a specific CPU.
  • A compiler is a language translator that can convert high-level language programs into machine language in one go.
• An assembly language is a low-level programming language in which there is a very strong correspondence between the program's statements and the architecture's machine code instructions.

The correct answer is Shark — Tortoise — Otter.

Key Points

• Shark - Scientists believe that sharks came into existence around 400 million years ago. It is believed that they descended from a small leaf-shaped fish that had no eyes, bones on fins.
  • These fish then evolved into two main groups of fish that are found today.
  • Bony fish and cartilaginous fish which include shark and Chimaira.
  • Sharks are on the top of the marine food chain and are the only huge marine reptiles that exist today.
• Tortoise is believed to have existed for 250 million years.
  • They belong to the reptile species of the family Testudinidae.
  • Tortoise has a hard shell to protect from the outside environment. They are believed to have evolved from very large body sizes of around 100 kgs. They are among the longest-living land animals in the world.
• Otters are believed to have existed on earth for the past 23 million years.
  • They have evolved significantly and have gone through many adaptations to survive till this time.

Additional Information

• They have the ability to move both on water and land except sea otters. The rest of the otters have webbed feet which help them to move in the water.
• They have five toes which help them to move on land as well. It is believed that they were once land animals only but they ended up going in the water to be safe from predators.
• It is also believed that the food sources were available in limited quantities on land so they started hunting in water to survive.

The correct answer is Initialize the object.

• The constructor is a method of class or structure used in object-oriented programming that initializes a newly created object.

Key Points

• Whenever the object is created, the constructor is called automatically.
• A constructor is used to set the values for the variables.
• There are three types of constructors: default constructor, parameterized constructor, and copy constructor.
• The name of the constructor should be the same as the class name and it never returns any value so it has no return type.
• Default constructor accepts no parameter, the parameterized constructor accepts arguments and copy constructor accepts a reference of its own class as a parameter.

The Correct Answer is Option 1 i.e Baking powder.

• Baking powder:
  • Baking powder is a mixture of baking soda and tartaric acid .
  • Tartaric acid has been added to baking powder to neutralize the bitterness produced by sodium bicarbonate (NaHCO₃) .
• Baking soda:
  • It is commonly known as sodium bicarbonate.
  • Sodium bicarbonate is a white crystalline solid.
  • It is used in baking products like cakes, cookies etc.
• Washing Soda:
  • It is commonly known as Na2CO3 or sodium carbonate.
  • It is used in softening of hard water.
  • It is commonly used as a cleaning agent for domestic purposes.It is also used in the manufacturing of paper, soap, textiles, paints, etc.
• Vinegar:
  • Vinegar is produced from fermentation of alcohol.
  • Vinegar is the natural source for acetic acid.
  • It is widely used as a flavouring agent in most of the cuisines.
