The number of water molecules is maximum in
Answer: B. 18 moles of water
Why: 18 moles contain 18 × 6.022×10²³ molecules, far more than 1 mole (18 g), 0.1 mole (1.8 g) or 18 molecules.
Which of the statements given below is incorrect?
Answer: B. OF₂ is an oxide of fluorine
Why: OF₂ is a fluoride of oxygen (oxygen is the less electronegative element), not an oxide of fluorine, so statement (2) is incorrect.
What is the mole fraction of the solute in a 1.00 m aqueous solution?
Answer: B. 0.0177
Why: 1 m means 1 mol solute in 1000 g (55.5 mol) water, so x = 1/(1 + 55.5) ≈ 0.0177.
The function of the gap junction is to :
Answer: C. Facilitate communication between adjoining cells by connecting the cytoplasm for rapid transfer of ions, small molecules and some large molecules.
Why: Gap junctions form channels linking the cytoplasm of adjacent cells, allowing rapid passage of ions and small molecules. Tight junctions prevent leakage and adhering junctions cement cells.
Outbreeding is an important strategy of animal husbandry because it:
Answer: D. Is useful in overcoming inbreeding depression.
Why: Mating unrelated animals (outcrossing) restores fertility and productivity lost through continued inbreeding, i.e. it overcomes inbreeding depression.
The structures that help some bacteria to attach to rocks and /or host tissues are :
Answer: C. Fimbriae
Why: Fimbriae are small bristle-like fibres on the bacterial cell surface that help in attachment to rocks and host tissues.
The imperfect fungi which are decomposers of litter and help in mineral cycling belong to:
Answer: B. Deuteromycetes
Why: Fungi whose sexual stage is unknown are called imperfect fungi and placed in Deuteromycetes; many act as litter decomposers and aid mineral cycling.
Name the pulmonary disease in which alveolar surface area involved in gas exchange is drastically reduced due to damage in the alveolar walls.
Answer: C. Emphysema
Why: Emphysema is a chronic disorder in which alveolar walls are damaged (often by smoking), reducing the respiratory surface area for gas exchange.
A remote-sensing satellite of earth revolves in a circular orbit at a height of 0.25 × 10⁶ m above the surface of earth. If earth's radius is 6.38 × 10⁶ m and g = 9.8 ms⁻², then the orbital speed of the satellite is
Answer: B. 7.76 km s⁻¹
Why: Orbital speed v = √(GM/(R+h)) = R√(g/(R+h)). With R = 6.38×10⁶ m and R+h = 6.63×10⁶ m this gives about 7.76 km/s.
Water rises to a height h in capillary tube. If the length of capillary tube above the surface of water is made less than h, then
Answer: C. Water rises upto the top of capillary tube and stays there without overflowing
Why: The meniscus adjusts its radius of curvature (h·r = constant) so that the water column is supported at the shorter height. Water rises to the top and stays without overflowing.
The Re-AIPMT 2015 paper (Set A) in our collection has 180 questions: 90 in Biology, 45 in Physics and 45 in Chemistry. All 180 questions are compulsory.
Each correct answer earns 4 marks and each wrong answer loses 1 mark. An unanswered question scores nothing.
The chapters that carried the most questions were Biological Classification (8), General Principles of Organic Chemistry (7), Cell: The Unit of Life (6).
