If A is an invertible matrix of order 2 ; then \(\operatorname{det}\left(A^{-1}\right)\) is equal to:
- A 1
- B \(\frac{1}{\operatorname{det}(A)}\)
- C \(\operatorname{det}(A)\)
- D 0
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(B) \(\frac{1}{\operatorname{det}(A)}\)
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( AA^{-1} = I \) \( \operatorname{det}(AA^{-1}) = \operatorname{det}(I) \) \( \operatorname{det}(A)\operatorname{det}(A^{-1}) = 1 \) \( \operatorname{det}(A^{-1}) = \frac{1}{\operatorname{det}(A)} \)

CUET 2025 Medium - Answer the question on the basis of passage given below:
In the periodic table, the d-block contains the elements of group \(3\) to \(12\). The d-orbitals are progressively filled in each of the four long periods. The elements of d block referred as transition metals have partly filled d orbitals and exhibit certain characteristic properties such as variety of oxidation states, formation of coloured ions, act as catalyst and show paramagnetic behaviour.
The two inner transition metals series \(4f\) and \(5f\) are known as Lanthanoids and Actinoids respectively. The lanthanoids resemble one another more closely as compared to ordinary transition elements in any series.
In context of the Lanthanoids, which of the following statements is/are NOT correct?
A. There is a gradual decrease in the radii of the members with increasing atomic number in the series
B. Availability of \(4f\) electrons results in the formation of compounds in \(+4\) oxidation state for all the members of the series
C. Because of similar properties, the separation of lanthanoids is not easy
D. \(La(OH)_3\) is least basic among hydroxides of lanthanoids
E. Ce can act as an oxidising agent

Formaldehyde is the first member of the aldehydic series. It is present in green leaves of plants where its presence is supposed to be due to the reaction of \(CO_2\) with water in the presence of sunlight and chlorophyll. Commercially, formaldehyde is obtained by the controlled oxidation of methane in the presence of molybdenum oxide (\(MoO\)) acting as a catalyst. Formaldehyde is a constituent of a number of polymers also called resins. These are non volatile solids or semi solids which are obtained directly from certain plants and can be synthesized in the laboratory.
