In what ratio, water must be added to dilute honey costing ₹ 320 per liter so that the resulted syrup would be worth ₹ 280 per liter?
- A 1:5
- B 3:5
- C 1:7
- D 2:9
Answer & Solution
Correct Answer
(C) 1:7
Step-by-step Solution
Detailed explanation
\( \text{Ratio of Water : Honey} = \frac{\text{Cost of Honey} - \text{Mean Cost}}{\text{Mean Cost} - \text{Cost of Water}} \) \( \text{Ratio of Water : Honey} = \frac{320 - 280}{280 - 0} \) \( \text{Ratio of Water : Honey} = \frac{40}{280} \)…

- Read the passage carefully and answer the following questions
There are mainly four series of the transition metals, \(3 d\) series ( \(S c\) to Zn), \(4 d\) series (Y to Cd), \(5 d\) series ( La and Hf to Hg ) and 6d series which has \(A c\) and elements from \(R f\) to \(C n\). The two series of the inner transition metals; \(4 f\) (Ce to Lu) and \(5 f\) (Th to Lr) are known as lanthanoids and actinoids respectively. Their chemical properties are transitional between those of \(s\) and \(p\)-block elements. The transition metals (with the exception of Zn, Cd and Hg) are very hard and have low volatility. Their melting and boiling points are high. Transition metals have incomplete d subshell either in neutral atom or in their ions. With partly filled d orbitals these elements exhibit certain characteristic properties such as display of a variety of oxidation states, formation of coloured ions and entering into complex formation with a variety of ligands. The transition metals and their compounds are known for their catalytic activity.
