The answers should be ticked on the question paper with a pen clearly and unambiguously. No separate answer sheet would be provided. No marks will be deducted on leaving a question or on giving an incorrect answer to a fill-up type of questions. Note for Assertion-Reason Type Questions (in Section B): State the correct option on the left hand side of the question. If the test-taker exceeds the time limit or resorts to any malpractices, it will amount to immediate disqualification. In case of issues, if any, final authority lies with the event co-ordinators; and participants will have no say in such issues.

Marking scheme for this type of questions:

Assertion is true, Reason is true and it is the correct reason for the assertion. Assertion is true, Reason is true but it is not the correct reason for the assertion. Assertion is true, Reason is false. Assertion is false.

4. Assertion: Raolts Law cannot predict the existence of azeotropes. Reason: It can be deduced from Raolts law that the mole fraction of more volatile component in the gas phase is always more than that in the liquid phase and hence the condition of azeotrope formation cannot be theoretically explained by Raolts law.
