12. (b) We want to dispense 12 suppositories each weighing 2gm and containing 400mg of tannic acid,

Amount of coca butter = 2 gm x 12

= 24 gm

Amount of tannic acid = 0.4 gm x 12

= 4.8 gm.

Displacement value of tannic acid is 0.9, therefore

= 4.8/0.9 = 5.33 gm of base will displace

4.8 gm tannic acid = 5.33 gm cocabutter

Amount of coca butter = 24 gm - 5.33 gm

= 18.67 gm


13. (c) Median or Mode is generally expressed as a middle value of experiment, if number of values are even, then average of middle values should be considered. To find median or mode of experiment data, one should first arrange the data in ascending or descending order.

In our example,

105, 115, 118, 120, 135, 140, 175, 190

= (120 + 135)/2 = 127.50


14. (a) The concentration of reactant M is half in a reaction that is third order in kinetic,

dx/dt = k (a-x) (b-x) (c-x)

= k (a-x)3 where a=b=c

= k (M)3

now M = M/2

= k (M/2)3

= 1 /8 k (M)3

15. (b) 0.025 min-1

For the first order kinetic,

K = 2.303/t x log Co/C

    = 2.303/90 x log 500/50

    = 2.303/90 x log 10

    = 0.025 min-1
