Which lipids do NOT contain fatty acids?
Steroids (e.g., cholesterol, hormones) have a fused ring structure and contain no fatty acids. Neutral lipids (triglycerides), phosphatidic acids, and waxes all contain fatty acids.
The functional group present in ketones is called:
Ketones contain a carbonyl group (C=O) bonded to two carbon atoms. Aldehydes have -CHO (formyl group). Carboxyl = -COOH, amino = -NH₂.
Calculation of oxidation states:
- $[Cr(C_{6}H_{6})_{2}]$: Benzene is a neutral ligand, so $Cr$ is in $0$ oxidation state.
- $[Cr(H_{2}O)_{6}]Cl_{3}$: $H_{2}O$ is neutral and there are 3 $Cl^{-}$ ions, so $x + 0 = +3 \Rightarrow x = +3$.
- $K_{2}[Cr(CN)_{2}(O)_{2}(O_{2})(NH_{3})]$: $K$ is $+1$, $CN$ is $-1$, $O$ (oxo) is $-2$, $O_{2}$ (peroxo) is $-2$, and $NH_{3}$ is $0$. $2(+1) + x + 2(-1) + 2(-2) + (-2) + 0 = 0 \Rightarrow x = +6$.
Generally IE₁ increases across a period. However, N has a half-filled 2p³ configuration (extra stability), so its IE₁ is higher than O.
Correct order: B < C < O < N (not B < C < N < O)
So option (2) is wrong. The I < Br < Cl < F order for EGE is also wrong (Cl > F), but option (3) is listed incorrectly too — however, the key answer is (2).
A graduating class has 236 students. Among them, 142 enrolled in algebra and 121 enrolled in chemistry. What is the greatest possible number of students who could have taken both algebra and chemistry?
We want the maximum overlap between algebra students (142) and chemistry students (121).
The overlap is maximized when every chemistry student also took algebra (since 121 < 142, this is possible).
Maximum overlap $= \min(142, 121) = \mathbf{121}$.
Check: if 121 students took both, then students taking at least one subject $= 142 + 121 - 121 = 142 \leq 236$. ✓
So the greatest possible number is $121$.
The genetic material of which virus is enclosed by a lipid membrane (envelope)?
Influenza virus is an enveloped virus (lipid bilayer derived from host cell). Enterovirus, Hepatitis A, and Polio are non-enveloped (naked) picornaviruses.
