Q1.A lens forms a sharp image on a screen. On inserting a parallel sided glass slab between the lens and the screen, it is found necessary to move the screen a distance d away from the lens in order to focus the image sharply. If the refractive index of glass relative to air is μ, the thickness of the glass slab is given by
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution: No Explaination.
Q3.Assertion: Mast cells in the human body release excessive amounts of inflammatory chemicals, which cause allergic reactions. Reason: Allergens in the environment on reaching human body stimulate mast cells in certain individuals.
Answer : Option CExplaination / Solution:
The IgE-primed mast cell releases granules and powerful chemical mediators, such as histamine, cytokines, granulocyte macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF), leukotrienes, heparin, and many proteases into the environment. These chemical mediators cause the characteristic symptoms of allergy.

Q6.The relative tendency of an atom in a molecule to attract the shared pair of electrons towards itself is termed as its
Answer : Option DExplaination / Solution:
A qualitative measure of the ability of an atom in a chemical compound to attract shared electrons to itself is called electronegativity. Unlike ionization enthalpy and electron gain enthalpy, it is not a measureable quantity. However, a number of numerical scales of electronegativity of elements viz., Pauling scale, Mulliken-Jaffe scale, Allred-Rochow scale have been developed. The electronegativity of any given element is not constant; it varies depending on the element to which it is bound.
