Asked in Premeth Test 37 — Chemical EquilibriumModerate

In this question, a statement is given followed by two courses of action numbered I and II. It is required to grasp the statement, analyze the problem or policy it mentions and then decide which of the courses of action logically follow / most appropriate.Statement:There has been an unprecedented increase in the number of successful candidates in this year's School Leaving Certificate Examination.Courses of action:I) The government should make arrangements to increase number of seats of intermediate courses in existing colleges.II) The government should take active steps to open new colleges to accommodate all these successful candidates.

Correct answer: A. If only I follows

  • A. If only I follows
  • B. If only II follows
  • C. If either I or II follows
  • D. If neither I nor II follows
  • E. If both I and II follow

Explanation

The correct answer is Option A: 'If only I follows'. The government should make arrangements to increase the number of seats in existing colleges as it is a more immediate and feasible solution to accommodate the increased number of successful candidates. Establishing new colleges, while beneficial in the long term, requires significant time, planning, and resources, making it less practical as an immediate course of action. Therefore, Option II is not the most appropriate immediate response.

About Chemical Equilibrium

Reversible reactions reach dynamic equilibrium when forward and reverse rates become equal, and Le Chatelier's principle predicts the effect of changing concentration, pressure or temperature. The chapter also covers solubility product, the common ion effect, buffer action and the conditions used in Haber's process, with equilibrium shifts distinguished from changes in the equilibrium constant.
