You have two cups one is 6cm and other 10cm with no measurement and you have to pour 8cm of water into the 10cm cup using the two cup, without measuring it. how can you?

Here’s one way to do it.

1. Fill the 6 cm cup.

2. Pour its contents into the 10 cm cup. This leaves 4 cm yet to be filled.

3. Refill the 6 cm cup and use it to fill the 10 cm cup. This leaves 2 cm in the 6 cm cup.

4. Empty the 10 cm cup and add the 2 cm from the 6 cm cup.

5. Refill the 6 cm cup.

6. Pour its contents into the 10 cm cup.

The 10 cm cup now contains 8 cm of water.

i believe the answer is a.

hydrocarbons are organic compounds that contain only hydrogens and carbons. they can be saturated (those which contain only carbon-carbon single bonds) or unsaturated (those which contain carbon-carbon double or triple bonds) in nature. hydrocarbons can undergo several reactions like substitution, elimination etc.  

on substituting one or more hydrogen atoms in hydrocarbon it results in the formation of haloalkane. as the halogen atoms are large compared to the carbon and hydrogen atoms, due to which the molecular weight increases and the bond become polar because of presence electronegative halogen atom and results in the increase in boiling point of the haloalkane.

thus, the correct option is (b) that is the boiling point of the new compound increases on substituting a hydrogen atom with a halogen in a hydrocarbon.
