Q4. Let a relation R on N × N be defined as :

(x1, y1) R (x2, y2) if and only if x1  x2 or y1  y2
Consider the two statements :
(I) R is reflexive but not symmetric
(II) R is transitive
Then which one of the following is true?
(A) Neither (I) nor (II) is correct (B) Only (II) is correct
(C) Both (I) and (II) are correct (D) Only (I) is correct
Ans. D
Sol. Reflexive :  x1, y1  R  x1, y1 
 x1  x1 or y1  y1 true
Symmetric :  x1, y1  R  x 2 , y 2 
 x1  x2 or y1  y 2
but x 2  x1 or y 2  y1 Not always true
So, Not symmetric
Transitive : (3,5) R (4,4) and (4,4) R (2,4)
but (3,5) Not related to (2,4)
So, Not transitive.

Q5. Let y = y(x) be the solution of the differential equation

PART – C (CHEMISTRY)
SECTION - A
(One Options Correct Type)
This section contains 20 multiple choice questions. Each question has four choices (1), (2), (3) and
(4), out of which ONLY ONE option is correct.

Q61. The correct order of the first ionization enthalpy is

(A) B > Al > Ga (B) Ga > Al> B
(C) Al > Ga > Tl (D) Tl > Ga > Al
Ans. D
Sol. Due to lanlhanide contraction ionization energy of T is more than Ga & A
Incase of Ga there are 10 d electrons in penultimate shell which screen nuclear charge less
effectively and thus outer electron held firmly by the nucleus ionisation energy of Ga is slightly
greater than A .

Q62. Given below are two statements:

Statement I : The correct order of first ionization enthalpy values of Li,Na, F and Cl is Na< Li < Cl
<F.
Statement II: The correct order of negative electron gain enthalpy vaues of Li, Na, F and Cl is Na
< Li < F < Cl
In the light of the above statements, choose the correct answer from the options given below:
(A) Statement I is false but Statement II is true.
(B) Statement I is true but Statement II is false.
(C) Both Statement I and Statement II are true.
(D) Both Statement I and Statement II are false.
Ans. C
Sol. Ionisation energy increases from left to right in period and decrease down the group so for
ionization energy Na< Li < Cl < F in general the electron gain enthalpy become less negative
from top to bottom in a group. In case of F & Cl electron gain enthalpy of Cl is more negative than
F because in case of F we have 7 electrons in smaller second shell as result there is strong enter
electronic repulsion when extra electron is added. So for electron gain enthalpy Na < Li < F < Cl

Q63. A first row transition metal in its +2 oxidation state has a spin-only magnetic moment value of

Q82. 2.7 kg of each of water and acetic acid are mixed. The freezing point of the solution will be  x o C .
Consider the acetic acid does not dimerise in water, nor dissociates in water
x =______(nearest integer)
[Given: Molar mass of water = 18 g mol1, acetic acid = 60 g mol1
Kf H2O: 1.86 K kg mol1
Kf acetic acid: 3.90 K kg mol1
Freezing point: H2O = 273K, acetic acid = 290K]
Ans. 31
Sol. As moles of H2O is greater than moles of acetic acid so water is solvent
